The artwork titled “Horsewoman on Red Horse” was created by Marc Chagall in 1966 in Saint-Paul-de-Vence, France. This piece, executed in oil on canvas, belongs to the Surrealism art movement and falls under the genre painting category. It measures 100 x 120 cm and is currently held in a private collection.
In the artwork, a woman is depicted riding a vividly red horse. The horse and rider are central figures, set against a deep blue backdrop that invokes a dreamlike quality typical of Surrealist works. The red horse stands out starkly, with expressive eyes, adding to the surreal atmosphere. The woman is adorned in a colorful, floral-patterned dress with bright yellow and green legs, resembling an ethereal figure. Surrounding the central figures are various fantastical elements, including what appears to be a fish-like creature, and other enigmatic characters, contributing to a mystical and otherworldly scene. The moon looms in the background, casting an uncanny light over the scene and enhancing the dreamlike ambiance crafted by Chagall.
