"Cheval Effrayé Par La Foudre" is a notable work by the French painter and lithographer Antoine Charles Horace Vernet, commonly known as Carle Vernet (1758–1836). This piece, translating to "Horse Frightened by Lightning," exemplifies Vernet's adeptness in capturing the dynamism of equine subjects and their reactions to the forces of nature, a theme recurrent in his oeuvre. Carle Vernet, a prominent figure in 18th and early 19th-century French art, was celebrated for his depictions of animals, hunting scenes, and historical compositions. His interest in accurately portraying horses, in particular, stemmed from his deep involvement in the equestrian world, both as a passionate rider and as an observer of horse anatomy and behavior.

"Cheval Effrayé Par La Foudre" is distinguished by its dramatic representation of a horse in a moment of intense fear, with the animal's muscles tensed and eyes wide in alarm, set against a tempestuous backdrop suggestive of a lightning storm. This work is reflective of Vernet's mastery in rendering emotional expressiveness and physical detail in his subjects, a skill that garnered him considerable acclaim during his lifetime. The painting also illustrates the Romantic era's fascination with the sublime and the power of nature, themes that were increasingly explored in art during the late 18th and early 19th centuries.

Though the exact date of creation for "Cheval Effrayé Par La Foudre" is not definitively established, it is situated within the broader context of Vernet's prolific career, during which he received numerous honors, including admission to the prestigious Académie Royale de Peinture et de Sculpture. The painting is emblematic of Vernet's contributions to Romanticism and animalier art, a genre focusing on animals in which he was particularly esteemed. Through works like "Cheval Effrayé Par La Foudre," Carle Vernet's legacy endures, offering insight into the artistic and cultural preoccupations of his time, as well as the enduring appeal of the equine form in art.
