Horace Vernet’s mastery of drawing is on full display in this early lithograph. His observational skills and lifelong love of horses are merged in this exquisitely detailed rendering of draft horses in a picturesque French farmyard—a tribute to the dignity, power, and beauty of the horse and its central importance in rural life of the day.
