The horse almost blends completely with the motion lines, giving the viewer the sense of speed that the rider must be feeling. Full of smooth fluid lines and sharp contrast, this painting is framed in a fantastic silver wood contemporary frame with black accents. Double matted with a gray and black mat. Total size of the picture is 26 x 29 inches, including frame.
