About this work

This painting shows a rider on a white horse, holding a spear. The rider wears a red robe and a crown, standing out against a blue sky. Around the scene, there are bright orange flowers with green leaves in the border. The rider’s face looks calm, but the horse is mid-gallop, which makes the whole scene feel fast. The border is simple but colorful, with flowers that look like they’re painted by hand. If you like this style, check out Realism next—it focuses on everyday scenes and people just like this.
