Cai de curse is a 1850 by Ștefan Luchian, a Art Nouveau work, held at National Museum of Art of Romania.
This painting shows two people on horseback in a grassy field. The riders wear light-colored clothes and hats, and the horses are a warm orange-brown. Behind them, a fence runs along a dirt path, with trees and a faint building in the distance. The brushwork is loose and soft, blending colors together. The artist used quick, sketchy strokes to suggest movement and light. The horses’ legs and the riders’ postures look slightly tilted, as if caught mid-motion. The background fades into a pale haze, keeping focus on the figures. Look up Luchian, Ștefan to see more of his work.
