From the collection of National Gallery of Art
Horses Going to a Fair is a 1821 ink by Théodore Géricault, a Romanticism work, depicting Equestrianism, held at National Gallery of Art.
This print shows five wild horses on a road with a few people around them. The artist used a new print method called lithography. It lets you draw on stone with grease crayons. Gericault made just 20 prints before he died young. This style feels rough and alive. See more of his work in the National Gallery of Art, Washington.
Jean-Louis André Théodore Géricault (French: ; 26 September 1791 – 26 January 1824) was a French painter and lithographer.
