Painting Description
"Horse Frightened by a Storm" is a dramatic and emotive painting by the French Romantic artist Eugène Delacroix, created in 1824. This work is an exemplary piece of Delacroix's early exploration into the themes of nature's power and animal expression, which would become central to his oeuvre. The painting depicts a solitary horse in a tumultuous landscape, rearing up against an impending storm that symbolizes the sublime forces of nature.
The canvas measures 41 x 33 cm and is part of a series of small studies of horses that Delacroix painted during the 1820s. These studies reflect his interest in the expressive potential of animals to convey human emotions and the grandeur of natural phenomena. "Horse Frightened by a Storm" particularly stands out for its dynamic composition and the palpable sense of fear and movement conveyed through the horse's agitated posture and the brooding, atmospheric background.
Delacroix's use of loose, energetic brushstrokes and a moody color palette enhances the sense of immediacy and intensity in the scene. The painting is a testament to Delacroix's fascination with the works of English painter George Stubbs and the literary themes of the sublime and the beautiful, as discussed by Edmund Burke and other philosophers of the time.
"Horse Frightened by a Storm" is held in a private collection and has been exhibited in various art institutions, contributing to the understanding of Delacroix's early development as a leading figure in the Romantic movement. The painting is often cited in art historical texts as an example of Delacroix's skill in capturing the emotional resonance of a scene and his innovative approach to the traditional subject matter of animal painting.
