The Met - Equine Art

Wolf and Fox Hunt by Peter Paul Rubens, circa 1616
I didn't get as many pictures of paintings on our trip to The Met, as we were getting pretty tired by this point, but I did happen to snap a few pictures of some lovely works. I had no idea that The Horse Fair by Bonheur (next 3 images below) was so huge! There was also a lovely display of Degas' equine sculptures that will get post all their own.

The Horse Fair by Rosa Bonheur, circa 1852-1855



Ernest Meissonier by Lyons French, circa 1807


Bronze by Antoine-Louis Barye, circa 1840's
