A Dun Horse 1848

Adolph Tidemand's "A Dun Horse," painted in 1848, depicts a light-colored horse standing in a grassy field. The horse's head is lowered, suggesting a calm demeanor, while the distant, muted landscape adds a sense of quietude to the scene. Tidemand, known for his romantic realism, captured the beauty of the animal and its natural setting in a way that is both naturalistic and emotionally resonant.
