Théodore Géricault's watercolor, "Le Cheval du Platrier", depicts a powerfully built horse wearing a muzzle and harness, its front leg raised in a rearing posture. Created in 1821-1823, this study showcases Géricault's talent for capturing animal anatomy and movement with dramatic realism. "Le Cheval du Platrier" is a testament to Géricault's fascination with animal power, a theme present in his famous "The Raft of the Medusa".
