EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "The Volte Renversee to the Right (top) and The Horse Learning to back" by Thomas Butler, a renowned artist from Pall Mall in the mid-18th century. Measuring an impressive 210x70 cm, this oil on canvas masterpiece is held in a private collection. Butler's work is attributed to his skillful interpretation of drawings by John Vanderbank, which were originally published by Josephus Sympson in the book "25 Actions of the Manage Horse" in 1729. This particular painting beautifully captures a dressage exercise, depicting a master equestrian guiding his horse through intricate movements. The composition exudes elegance and sophistication with its rococo framing and fashionable costumes worn by both rider and steed. The attention to detail is remarkable, as seen in every stroke that brings life-like qualities to the artwork. Noteworthy elements include the trompe l'oeil effect employed by Butler, creating an illusion of depth within the painting. Additionally, one cannot miss the presence of a rod and tricorn hat symbolizing authority and tradition within horsemanship. This print allows art enthusiasts worldwide to appreciate Butler's mastery even centuries after its creation. It serves as a testament to timeless beauty captured on canvas while offering insight into historical equestrian practices.
