1662
From the collection of Cleveland Museum of Art
Reynard the Fox: The Jealous Horse is a 1662 by Allart van Everdingen, a Baroque work, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
This painting depicts a serene scene of a horse, sheep, and a man in a forest. The horse is the central figure, with the man standing beside it, while the sheep are scattered around them. The background features trees and a cloudy sky. The artist's use of chiaroscuro creates a sense of depth and volume in the painting, with the horse and man standing out against the softer, more muted tones of the forest. The painting's tranquil atmosphere and use of chiaroscuro are reminiscent of the Baroque movement.
Allaert van Everdingen (Dutch pronunciation: ; bapt. 18 June 1621 – 8 November 1675 (buried)), was a Dutch Golden Age painter and printmaker in etching and mezzotint.
