National Gallery of Art

This is a painting of a horse-drawn carriage. The image shows a brightly colored carriage being pulled by two grey horses. The carriage is painted in yellow with ornate decorations and large blue-green wheels. A figure in a blue outfit is at the front steering the horses, holding the reins. The horses appear to be in motion, as if the carriage is being actively driven. The painting is in the style of naïve art, known for vivid colors and simplistic forms.
