Equestrian Oil Painting - Chestnut Horse in Stable - Signed R. Marie

Sale price$250.00

This striking equestrian portrait, painted on a wooden panel and signed R. Mario, captures the timeless bond between horse and rider in an intimate stable scene. Rendered in oil, the subject—a sleek bay horse—stands poised with careful anatomical detailing, highlighting the artist’s appreciation for equine form and vitality. A stable wall, saddle blanket, and subtle accoutrements frame the horse, situating it within the romantic tradition of European sporting and animal portraiture.

 

Historical Significance

Equestrian paintings flourished throughout the 18th and 19th centuries, favored by aristocrats and sportsmen alike for their symbolic ties to nobility, leisure, and strength. In France and England especially, equestrian portraiture reflected both social standing and personal pride, often immortalizing beloved steeds. This work follows that lineage, its earthy tones and naturalistic brushwork echoing late 19th-century tastes.
