This delightful 19th century oil painting features an endearing portrait of a horse in a stable setting. Painted in a naive style, the artwork exudes a rustic and unpretentious appeal. The artist, whose signature appears to read “Simon”, captures the essence of the animal with a touch of folk art charm. The painting is housed in a simple wooden frame that is not original to the artwork, but is still an older vintage piece that complements the artwork’s character. This work features a chamfered edge, a style popular in the 19th century where the wood was trimmed back at an angle rather than left flat. Sourced in Brimfield, Massachusetts.
