"Harnessed Black Horse" (French: "Cheval harnaché, noir") is a painting by the influential French artist Théodore Géricault, who is renowned for his pivotal role in the Romantic movement. Although Géricault is best known for his monumental work "The Raft of the Medusa," his oeuvre includes a significant number of animal studies, among which "Harnessed Black Horse" is a notable example. This work is part of a series of equine portraits that reflect Géricault's fascination with the physicality and movement of horses, a subject that he returned to throughout his career.

The painting depicts a solitary black horse, harnessed and seemingly at rest, set against a nondescript background that focuses the viewer's attention on the animal itself. Géricault's mastery in rendering the muscularity and the texture of the horse's coat is evident, as is his ability to capture the essence and spirit of the animal. The exact date of the painting's creation is not well-documented, but it is generally believed to have been produced during the height of Géricault's career, in the early 19th century.

"Harnessed Black Horse" is exemplary of Géricault's skill in animal portraiture and his understanding of the Romantic ideals that emphasized emotion and the sublime found in nature. The painting is also indicative of the artist's technical prowess and his innovative approach to composition and form, which would influence future generations of artists.

As with many of Géricault's works, "Harnessed Black Horse" is not only a testament to his artistic talent but also provides insight into the social and cultural interests of the time, particularly the Romantic fascination with the natural world and the noble qualities ascribed to animals such as the horse. The painting is held in high regard by art historians and is considered an important piece within Géricault's body of work, contributing to our understanding of the Romantic period and its artistic expressions.
