Tricolored Horse 1974

"Tricolored Horse" is a gouache on paper by Alexander Calder, created in 1974. The piece features a stylized horse in red, blue, and yellow, a smaller red animal that may be a dog, a man in a top hat, and a large red sun. Calder is known for his abstract sculptures and mobiles, but also made works on paper with a playful and bold style, often using bright colors. The artwork reflects his fascination with movement and circus themes.
