Horsewoman

About this work

This painting depicts a woman riding a black horse, with a white dress and a green hat. She is accompanied by two dogs, one of which is looking up at her. In the background, there is a stone building with a column and a red curtain. The woman's dress is flowing behind her, and the horse is in mid-gallop. The scene is set in a courtyard or garden, with trees visible in the background. The overall atmosphere is one of elegance and refinement.
