"Race of the Riderless Horses" is an oil painting by the French artist Théodore Géricault, created circa 1817. This work is one of the numerous equine subjects that Géricault, a passionate horseman himself, painted throughout his career. The painting depicts a dramatic scene of riderless horses racing, a subject that reflects the artist's fascination with the raw power and movement of these animals.

Théodore Géricault (1791–1824) was a pivotal figure in the Romantic movement, and his works often conveyed intense emotion, dynamic movement, and a grand sense of drama. "Race of the Riderless Horses" exemplifies these characteristics, capturing the chaotic energy of the horses as they thunder across the canvas. The painting's composition, with its strong diagonal lines and sense of speed, conveys a feeling of unbridled force that is emblematic of Géricault's style.

Although not as famous as his monumental work "The Raft of the Medusa," "Race of the Riderless Horses" is nonetheless significant for its demonstration of Géricault's skill in rendering animals, particularly horses, which were a lifelong subject of study for the artist. The painting also provides insight into the popular public spectacles of horse racing during the early 19th century, which often included races of riderless horses as a form of entertainment.

Today, "Race of the Riderless Horses" is recognized as an important work within Géricault's oeuvre and contributes to the understanding of the Romantic movement's exploration of nature, emotion, and the sublime. The painting is held in a public collection, allowing art enthusiasts and scholars to appreciate Géricault's contribution to the development of modern art.
