The artwork, titled “Man with Horse,” was created by Kazimir Malevich around the year 1932. The piece is associated with the Neo-Suprematism art movement and falls within the genre of portraiture. Additionally, it forms part of the “2nd Peasant Cycle” series.
The artwork exhibits a figure, likely a man, standing in the foreground with a horse situated directly behind him. The figure is depicted with exaggerated and simplified geometric shapes, characteristic of Malevich’s style. Predominantly embellished in bold hues of red and black, the figure captures attention amid a lush green ground and a deep blue sky. The white horse in the background is portrayed in a softened, almost indistinct manner, contributing to a surreal and abstract composition. The juxtaposition of vivid colors and elementary forms exemplifies the Neo-Suprematist aesthetic, emphasizing abstract representation and dynamic geometry.
