Early 19th Century Oil Painting with Two Horses, ca. 1820–1840

This oil painting dates to the early 19th century, circa 1820–1840. The composition depicts two horses in a wooded landscape, rendered with an emphasis on movement and natural interaction, characteristic of period animal painting.

Executed in oil on canvas, the work features warm earthy tones and a softly atmospheric background. The brushwork is controlled yet expressive, particularly in the modeling of the horses and surrounding foliage. The canvas retains its original character and surface.
