About this work
A centaur-like figure—an elderly, bare-chested man in a red shirt joined at the waist to a horse's body—stands harnessed to a rusted iron plow at the edge of a wooden fence. A full moon hangs pale in a hazy sky above a strip of freshly turned dark earth and green grass.
Muted grey-blue and ochre tones dominate the sky and ground, brightened only by the red of the shirt and the moon's soft glow. Loose, blended brushwork softens edges into an overcast atmosphere, while the hybrid body is rendered with careful anatomical realism, lending the folkloric subject a quiet, dreamlike gravity.
