Horse Weather Vane 1935 - 1942

Dolores Haupt's "Horse Weather Vane" (1935 - 1942) is a detailed drawing of a horse in profile, rendered in a realistic style with subtle shading and textural details. The horse is depicted in motion, suggesting its use as a weather vane, a common decorative element in rural America. The drawing's emphasis on the horse's anatomical features, particularly its powerful legs and flowing mane, evokes a sense of strength and grace, reflecting the importance of horses in American history and culture.
