Robert Ladou
Original French Pencil Study of Riders and Horses in Misty Landscape

20th century

About the Item

Title: Original French Pencil Study of Riders and Horses in Misty Landscape Artist: Robert Ladou (French, 1929-2014) Medium: Pencil on paper Size: 11.75 (Height) x 16.5 (Width) Signed: No Condition: Good, with minor signs of aging and light marks Provenance: From the artist's estate Description: This delicate study by Robert Ladou captures a group of horses and riders enveloped in a soft, misty landscape. The sketch conveys a serene yet mysterious atmosphere, as the figures seem to emerge from or fade into the background. Ladou’s light use of shading and fine lines creates an ethereal effect, making the scene feel almost dreamlike. His attention to the posture of the horses and the relationship between the figures adds a dynamic yet peaceful quality to the piece, demonstrating Ladou’s mastery in portraying equestrian subjects with minimal detailing. This piece would appeal to collectors who appreciate equestrian art or atmospheric landscape studies that leave room for interpretation and imagination. It is a fine example of Ladou’s ability to capture movement and mood with simplicity.

Pencil and watercolour heightened with gold paint and gum arabic on paper, 36.8 x 27.9 cm A gift so majestic, it made kings blush, and a gift so grand, it would startle Europe into a craze. Pasha Muhammad Ali of Egypt (1805-1848) did it in 1827: he sent to Europe three magical spotted, horned creatures, each with a neck reaching the skies and legs as long as a house is high. One giraffe to King Charles X of France, one to Francis I of Austria and the most fabled one to King George IV of England. A curious sight for Europeans, who had not seen such a beast since the Medici giraffe in 1487. Few animals created more of a stir in Europe than these royal...
