Two Percheron Horses

About this work

This painting shows two horses pulling a cart. They are Percheron horses, a breed known for their size and strength. The horses are white with some gray markings. They are wearing harnesses and are attached to a cart, but the cart is not fully visible in the painting. The background of the painting is mostly obscured by the horses and cart. There appear to be some buildings or structures in the distance, but they are not clearly defined. The overall atmosphere of the painting is one of activity and movement, as if the horses are in motion. The artist who created this painting is William Gordon Burn-Murdoch.
