Black Horse
1934

A watercolor painting depicting a rural scene with a lone horse in the foreground, standing on a dirt path. In the background, there are several rustic buildings with slanted roofs, surrounded by trees and bushes. The sky is overcast with shades of gray and blue, and the overall color palette is subdued with earthy tones.
