More about this artwork
We are delighted to present "Horses" by Cyprián Majerník, an evocative piece crafted between 1936 and 1937. This painting showcases Majerník's distinctive blend of expressionism and realism, capturing the vitality and dynamic essence of these magnificent creatures.In "Horses," the viewer is confronted with two robust horses painted against a vivid blue background that strikingly contrasts with the soft tones of their coats. The horse in the foreground is depicted mostly in shades of greyish white, exuding an air of nobility and calm strength. Its companion, rendered in darker tones, echoes this majestic poise. Both animals are portrayed with vigorous brushstrokes that bring out their muscular form and the smoothness of their coats.The setting is minimalistic with a barren tree and distant rolling hills, creating a subtle yet poignant backdrop. This simplicity directs our focus entirely on the subjects, emphasizing their powerful forms and the immediate connection they share.Majerník’s use of color and form not only celebrates the physical beauty of the horses but also seems to delve into their spirited nature.
