More about this artwork

"Our Artist" (1868) by Charles Decimus Barraud is a captivating pencil sketch that portrays the intimate relationship between an artist and nature. This modest yet eloquent drawing reveals a man seated comfortably on his horse, engrossed in the act of sketching. The figure, likely a self-portrait of Barraud himself, is clad in attire suitable for travel and outdoor work, suggesting that he was on an artistic expedition. The horse stands patiently, its contours lightly rendered with detailed attention to its gentle demeanor and flowing mane.Barraud's sketch is remarkable for its simplicity and its ability to express a moment of creative engagement in the natural world. The sketch hangs lightly on the page, its soft pencil lines communicating motion and contemplation. The title "Our Artist" suggests a sense of shared identity or community, possibly reflecting the artist’s connection with his audience or fellow creators.This work not only showcases Barraud’s skill as a draftsman but also his passion for capturing the essence of his surroundings through art.
