"Bargaining for a Horse," also known as "Farmers Bargaining," is a notable painting by the American artist William Sidney Mount, created in 1835. Mount, a prominent figure in 19th-century American genre painting, is celebrated for his depictions of rural life and everyday scenes, which offer a glimpse into the social and cultural fabric of the time. This particular work exemplifies Mount's keen eye for detail and his ability to capture the nuances of human interaction.

The painting portrays a quintessential rural scene where two farmers are engaged in a negotiation over the sale or trade of a horse. The setting is a rustic outdoor environment, typical of Mount's preference for depicting the American countryside. The composition is carefully arranged to highlight the central figures, with the horse positioned between them, symbolizing the focal point of their discussion. The expressions and body language of the farmers are rendered with meticulous attention, conveying the tension and earnestness of the bargaining process.

Mount's use of light and shadow enhances the realism of the scene, while his adept handling of color and texture brings a sense of vitality to the painting. The artist's background in portraiture is evident in the detailed rendering of the farmers' faces, which reflect a range of emotions from skepticism to determination. This work not only showcases Mount's technical prowess but also his ability to tell a story through his art, making it a significant piece in the canon of American genre painting.

"Bargaining for a Horse" is housed in the New York Historical Society, where it continues to be appreciated for its historical and artistic value.
