A Bay Racehorse with a Jockey in the Colours of Wyndham Quin is a 1770 oil by Daniel Quigley, held at National Gallery of Ireland.
The painting depicts a racehorse with a jockey wearing Wyndham Quin's colors. The horse is shown in profile, facing left, with the jockey sitting on its back. The horse's coat is a rich brown color, and the jockey's uniform is a vibrant blue with yellow accents. In the background, a subtle landscape is visible, with rolling hills and a cloudy sky. The overall mood of the painting is one of energy and movement, capturing the dynamic spirit of horse racing. This painting is reminiscent of the works of artist Daniel Quigley, who was known for his equestrian portraits.
