"Frolic on Horseback, " Mural Study w/ Nudes by Kenneth MacIntire

About the Item

Best known for his masterful painting of horses and polo players for a Hollywood clientele, this important study -- marked off in a grid to help the painter transfer the image to a large canvas -- was drawn by Kenneth Stevens MacIntire, a California painter. His depiction of male and female nudes on horseback, accompanied by more nudes running alongside, is a study of speed, high spirits and joyfulness.
