The Small Horse

Albrecht Dürer

Cleveland Museum of Art

The Small Horse by Albrecht Dürer: A white horse with a long mane and tail stands in a three-quarter view to the left, front left leg raised. The horse's head is turned to the left. A stone block with the letters A D lies on the ground in front of the horse. The horse stands beneath an archway with a rounded top. A portion of the sky and a brazier with flames are visible through the archway. A long spear or pole with a spearhead at the end rests on the horse's back and against the archway. The background features a detailed depiction of stone walls and archway.
