"Jockey à Cheval" (English: "Jockey on Horseback") is a notable work by the French artist Edgar Degas, who is widely regarded for his contributions to Impressionism, although he preferred to be called a realist. Degas was particularly fascinated with the subject of horses and the equestrian world, which is a recurring theme in his oeuvre. This painting is one of the many expressions of his interest in the dynamic forms and the sense of movement associated with horse racing.

Created in the late 19th century, "Jockey à Cheval" exemplifies Degas's skill in capturing the essence of a moment, with a particular focus on the athleticism and grace of both the horse and its rider. The work is characterized by its vibrant brushwork and the artist's use of color, which conveys the liveliness of the racetrack. Degas's study of photography and his interest in Japanese prints are often cited as influences in his approach to composition, as seen in the unconventional cropping and the sense of motion in this piece.

The painting is part of a larger body of work that includes pastels, drawings, and sculptures, through which Degas explored the anatomy of horses, the nuances of their movements, and the relationship between the animals and their jockeys. "Jockey à Cheval" not only reflects Degas's fascination with the equestrian subject but also provides insight into the social and cultural aspects of the horse racing world during the late 19th century in France.

As with many of Degas's works, "Jockey à Cheval" is admired for its technical mastery and its contribution to the development of modern art. The painting is held in high esteem by art historians and is considered an important piece within Degas's extensive portfolio. It continues to be studied for its artistic significance and is featured in collections and exhibitions that celebrate the legacy of Edgar Degas.
