About this work

This painting shows a man in a bright red coat riding a dark brown horse. His wig is curled, and he holds a long stick in one hand. The horse is rearing up on its back legs, and the background has a building with a clock tower and a tree. The man’s outfit looks fancy, like something from long ago. The horse’s muscles are painted in a way that makes them look real and strong. If you like this style, look up *chiaroscuro*.
