EDITORS COMMENTS
Carle Vernet's captivating lithograph, "French Race Horses," transports us back in time to the 18th and 19th centuries when equestrian culture reached new heights in France. This hand-colored lithograph, created by the renowned artist Antoine Charles Horace Vernet, showcases the beauty and power of racehorses in their natural habitat. The dynamic scene unfolds at a racetrack, where the excitement of the race is palpable. Horses and jockeys are depicted in mid-action, their muscles taut and eyes focused on the finish line. The lithograph is a testament to Vernet's exceptional skill as a draftsman and his ability to capture the essence of movement and energy. The intricate details of the horses' coats, the textured patterns of their manes and tails, and the vibrant colors of their silks are all rendered with remarkable precision. The lettering in the top left corner identifies the artist as Carle Vernet, adding to the authenticity and historical significance of the piece. This work of art is a must-have for any collection focusing on equestrian art, French history, or the cultural heritage of the 18th and 19th centuries. Originally created as a hand-tinted lithograph, this piece has been preserved and presented here in its original form. The National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C., is one of the many prestigious institutions that have recognized the value of Carle Vernet's work and have included it in their permanent collections. This stunning artwork is a testament to the enduring appeal of horse racing and the artistry of one of France's most celebrated painters.
