About the Item
An oil painting by Amy Florence (b. 1989, England)
Horses have been depicted by artists since the prehistoric caves of Lascaux; the imposing four-legged animal served as a symbol of man’s dominance over the environment. Horses have also served as symbols of wealth and power, with regal paintings of kings atop horses in battle, to portraits commissioned of noblemen posing atop their stately steeds. Florence, however, is not painting the equine subject as a symbol of status or domestication; she is alternatively studying them in their natural routines. Florence studied the anatomy of horses for months via books and by spending time on a friend’s farm. She copied several sketches made by Munnings to prepare for painting horses from life. After she witnessed the creature’s day-to-day habits, she chose to convey them just as they are: standing in their stables, trotting through a grassy plain, or taking solace in the shade for a bite of hay. Florence implements her new knowledge on the anatomy, textures, and temperaments of these magnificent animals.
Signed "Amy Florence" in red on lower right corner, recto.
Framed in custom italian frame, wood with white gold leaf finish.
