Jozef Hanula's "Study of a Grey Horse with a Coachman" from 1895 is a realist depiction of a grey horse, its muscular form and detailed anatomy emphasized by the artist's skillful use of light and shadow. The coachman, standing beside the horse, adds a human element to the scene, suggesting a moment of quiet anticipation or contemplation. This painting exemplifies Hanula's talent for capturing the beauty and power of animals, showcasing a specific breed of horse that was popular in Europe during the late 19th century.
