Pie Plate

William L. Antrim

National Gallery of Art

This is a drawing of a horse with a rider in a decorative plate. The drawing depicts a person-like figure sitting in a side-saddle posture atop a reddish-brown horse, adorned with a green-draped garb. They are enclosed within a circular design, surrounded by flower and leaf motifs that are placed around the perimeter of the plate. The plate features a golden-olive background with the words "Lady oke" inscribed below the horse. The design evokes a folk art style, with simple and bold lines supporting a rustic charm.
