About the Item

A dynamic oil painting depicting a high energy horse race with abstract details and bursts of energy showcased with use of fast brush work and thick impasto oil paint. Jockeys, wearing colorful helmets and riding horses, are captured mid-gallop, kicking up splashes of dust as they race along a track. The horses are rendered in rich brown and blue tones, with the jockeys' helmets in vibrant shades of yellow, orange, pink, and blue, adding a lively contrast. A signpost displaying the number "20" stands prominently on the right side, the track is bordered by a grandstand or stadium structure, painted in muted blues and grays, adding depth to the composition. Done in a highly impressionistic manner with unique colors and expressions, the use of bright colors and quick brush strokes create this equestrian scene both dynamically and masterfully. How the artist captures this moment feels as if the viewer is there at the race, feeling the pulse and heart beat of the thrill come to life through the canvas. This painting is signed by the artist lower right and it comes housed in a golden brown ornate wood frame with hanging wire on verso ready to be displayed. Art measures 24 x 36 inches Frame measures 34.75 x 46.75 inches PROVENANCE: Estate of a Private collection New York; Lilac Gallery Collection. The piece will be stamped from Lilac Gallery on its verso.

"Warrington Circus PA" Bucks County Pastoral Landscape Oil Painting on Board
Located in New York, NY
Post-Impressionist summer pastoral scene of a circus with tent, balloons, figures and Elephant in Warrington, PA.

Many are depicted in recognizable historical settings and this piece is an excellent example of this as he captures a historic setting of Bucks County with the charm of an eventful afternoon. Christopher engages his audience with the quick use of brushwork and great attention to picking up the energy passionately of his subjects.
