Artwork Description

Racecourse spectacle

100.0 x 80.0 cm

This lively oil painting masterfully captures the excitement and atmosphere of a horse race. The dynamics of the movement are impressively depicted, with the stretched bodies of the horses and the riders bent forward in their colourful jerseys. The imposing grandstand rises up in the background, decorated with red flowers. The spectator stands are filled with a colourful crowd, depicted as a mosaic of numerous small patches of colour, symbolising the diversity and liveliness of the audience. It has succeeded in combining the energy of the race with the excitement of the spectators. This painting is not only a depiction of a horse race, but also a tribute to the tradition and glamour of racing. It gives the viewer the feeling of being right in the middle of the action and makes the excitement and thrill of a race day palpable.
