Painting Description
"Marengo, from Celebrated Horses" is a notable work within a series of fourteen racing prints created by the eminent British artist James Ward between 1823 and 1824. This particular print features Marengo, a distinguished racehorse named after the Battle of Marengo, which was a significant victory for Napoleon Bonaparte. James Ward, renowned for his animal paintings and a member of the Royal Academy, captured the equine subject with a level of detail and dynamism that was characteristic of his work. The series to which this print belongs celebrated the prowess and beauty of racehorses, which were a popular subject in the art and culture of early 19th-century Britain, reflecting the nation's growing interest in horse racing and breeding.
In "Marengo, from Celebrated Horses," Ward's mastery in rendering the anatomy and spirit of horses is evident. The print showcases the horse in a moment of stillness, possibly after a race or during training, allowing viewers to appreciate the fine musculature and poise of the thoroughbred. The series was well-received in its time and contributed to Ward's reputation as one of the foremost animal painters of his era. Today, these prints are considered important works in the genre of sporting art and provide insight into the early 19th-century British society's fascination with horse racing and the animals that captured the public's imagination. The "Marengo" print, along with its companions in the series, holds historical significance not only for its artistic merit but also for its reflection of the cultural values and interests of the period.
