About the Item

Executed in expressive, confident strokes, this English charcoal drawing captures the head and neck of a galloping horse, its mouth open and bridle taut in motion. Dating to circa 1920, the study conveys a remarkable sense of energy and immediacy, with faint underdrawing suggesting the artist’s layered observation. The animal’s musculature and facial tension are rendered with a bold economy of line, drawing attention to both physical strain and spirited defiance. The artwork is presented in a vintage wood frame with a broad mat and thin ink-line detail, complementing the warm tone of the aged paper. Though unsigned beyond a monogram, the piece evokes academic figure studies and equine portraiture from the early 20th century, and would suit traditional or eclectic interiors alike. Framed under glass and ready to hang, this drawing offers timeless appeal to collectors of English sporting art, animal studies, or character-rich works on paper.
