About "Close Fight to the Finish"
The graceful stallions seem to be blending with the background and swirls of black – purposefully orchestrated by the painter to elicit feelings of speedy and graceful movement. It is a vibrant reminder of the hard work, excellence, and devotion exhibited by the horses by obeying every grueling command of their rider.
It captures the focus of the rider in connecting with the horse in order to finish and win the race. The relationship between the rider and horse is certainly therapeutic and goes beyond the understanding of an onlooker – and the artist has captured this brilliantly on the two-dimensional canvas. Passion and gratitude for these magnificent animals are natural feelings when gazing on this beautiful piece.
