Untitled is a 1813 ink by Kubo Shunman, a Romanticism work, depicting horse, held at Metropolitan Museum of Art.
This painting shows a woman riding a horse, with another woman standing beside it. The horse is black, and the woman on it wears a long, flowing robe with a pattern of circles. She holds a scroll in her hand. The woman standing next to the horse wears a red robe and holds a branch with red flowers. The background of the painting is a light color, with some darker lines that might be mountains or hills. The overall effect is one of movement and energy, as if the horse and the women are about to move off the page.
