Horse Head Hitching Post 1938

Alexander Anderson's "Horse Head Hitching Post" is a detailed watercolor painting from 1938 depicting a horse's head attached to a wooden post. The horse's head is rendered in a realistic style, with its dark brown color and subtle shading giving it a three-dimensional quality. The wooden base is also shown with great detail, highlighting the grain and wear and tear of the post. This artwork offers a glimpse into the rural life of the past, showcasing a common sight on farms and ranches in the early 20th century. Anderson's attention to detail makes the piece both visually appealing and historically evocative.
