About this work

This print shows three riders on horseback. The person in the middle wears a dark coat and hat, holding a flag with a red cross. The rider on the right is in a bright blue coat with gold trim, and the horse is red. The horse on the left is dark with a red saddle blanket. The sketchy lines and bold colors make it feel fast and lively. The artist used quick, loose strokes instead of smooth details. Next, check out Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec (French, 1864–1901) for more of his bold, expressive work.
