"A Horse Croup" (French: "Croupe de cheval") is an oil painting by the influential French artist Théodore Géricault, who is widely known for his profound impact on the Romantic movement. Created in the early 19th century, this work exemplifies Géricault's fascination with the dynamism of horses and his exceptional ability to capture their anatomy and movement. Although not as famous as his monumental work "The Raft of the Medusa," "A Horse Croup" is nonetheless significant for its demonstration of Géricault's skill in rendering the power and musculature of the horse, a subject that he revisited throughout his career.

The painting features a close-up view of the hindquarters of a horse, showcasing Géricault's attention to detail and his understanding of equine form. The artist's use of light and shadow, combined with a rich palette, brings out the texture and tone of the horse's skin and musculature, imbuing the painting with a sense of vitality and strength. Géricault's interest in horses was not merely academic; he was an avid horseman himself, and his passion for these animals is evident in the care and precision with which he approached their depiction.

"A Horse Croup" is part of a larger body of work by Géricault that includes various studies of horses and other animals. These studies reflect both his personal interest and the broader Romantic movement's preoccupation with nature, the sublime, and the expression of intense emotion. Géricault's ability to convey the majesty and raw energy of his subjects contributes to his enduring legacy as a master of Romantic art.

The painting is held in a private collection or a museum, and it continues to be studied and admired for its technical mastery and its place within Géricault's oeuvre. As with many of Géricault's works, "A Horse Croup" is not only a testament to his artistic talent but also a window into the cultural and aesthetic preoccupations of his time.
