Study of a Horse 

Eugène Delacroix, a prominent French Romantic painter, created this study of a horse using watercolor on paper. The artwork focuses on the horse's anatomy and form, showcasing Delacroix's mastery of capturing movement and expression. The horse's musculature is meticulously rendered, highlighting the artist's keen observation of animal anatomy. Delacroix’s use of light and shadow further emphasizes the animal’s form, creating a sense of depth and realism. This study likely served as preparation for a larger work, demonstrating Delacroix's dedication to detailed observation and skilled draftsmanship.
