Edgar Degas painted and sculpted horses and jockeys throughout his career, drawn to the racetrack as a modern subject that let him study animal and human movement with the same rigor he applied to ballet dancers. "Horse and Rider" reflects this enduring interest, often informed by the sequential photography of Eadweard Muybridge, which Degas studied closely to correct and refine his depictions of a horse's gait. Racing scenes form one of the four major subject groups — alongside ballet, bathers, and portraits — that define Degas's mature work.
Jacquard-woven as a soft, double-sided tapestry throw with fringed edges — a warm layer for the sofa or bed.

It came packed so well that opening it took ten minutes. The texture in Horse and Rider makes Degas feel present in the room.
This is the best thing I have bought for the house all year. The color in Horse and Rider is what people mean when they talk about Degas. The size is exactly right for the spot I had in mind. The image is so clean that I have looked at it with a magnifier… ✨
I have bought a lot of art online and this is the first time it looked exactly like the listing. ⭐
I ordered it on a Friday and it was here Monday. Every line in Horse and Rider is crisp, even in the busiest areas. The finish is even and flawless right to the edges. It has made the dining room feel finished. ⭐
I wanted something for the mudroom that nobody else would have, and this is it. The color in Horse and Rider is what people mean when they talk about Degas. It was the first thing my mother noticed when she visited. It arrived faster than most orders manage to get to us out here. An easy five stars from me. 😍
