The artwork titled “Horses by the Sea” was created by the artist Eyvind Earle in 1981 in the United States. This piece is associated with the Magic Realism movement and falls under the landscape genre.
In the artwork, a group of horses is depicted traversing an expansive beach along the sea. The scene is accentuated by the artist’s characteristic use of intricate patterns and dramatic contrasts. The towering, surreal trees and foliage, rendered in meticulous detail, create a sense of depth and a dreamlike atmosphere. The shadows cast by the horses and the vegetation add a vivid play of light and shadow, enhancing the illusion of a magical, almost otherworldly, landscape. The sea appears to softly blend into the horizon, evoking a sense of tranquility amidst the enchanting realism that defines this distinctive piece.
