"Running Horse" is a celebrated painting by the renowned Chinese artist Xu Beihong, who is often hailed as the father of modern Chinese painting. Xu Beihong (1895-1953) was a pivotal figure in the 20th-century Chinese art scene, known for his adept fusion of Western techniques with traditional Chinese subjects. His works are characterized by their dynamic compositions, meticulous brushwork, and profound emotional depth.

"Running Horse" exemplifies Xu Beihong's mastery in capturing the spirit and vitality of his subjects. Horses were a recurring theme in Xu's oeuvre, symbolizing unbridled freedom, strength, and the indomitable spirit of the Chinese people. This particular painting is celebrated for its lifelike depiction of a horse in mid-gallop, rendered with a sense of movement and energy that brings the animal to life on the canvas. Xu's ability to convey the musculature and grace of the horse with fluid, expressive brushstrokes demonstrates his exceptional skill and deep understanding of both anatomy and motion.

The painting is executed in ink and wash, a traditional Chinese medium that Xu Beihong revitalized through his innovative techniques. He employed a combination of bold, sweeping lines and delicate, nuanced shading to create a sense of depth and dynamism. The horse's mane and tail are depicted with vigorous, spontaneous brushstrokes, contrasting with the more controlled lines of its body, thus highlighting the tension and power of the animal in motion.

"Running Horse" not only showcases Xu Beihong's technical prowess but also reflects his philosophical and cultural ideals. Through this work, Xu sought to inspire a sense of national pride and resilience during a time of great upheaval in China. The painting remains a significant cultural artifact, embodying the fusion of Eastern and Western artistic traditions and the enduring spirit of the Chinese people.
