Description of the painting by Franz Mark “Blue Horse”
The Blue Horse is one of the most famous works of the German artist Franz Marc. However, it is different from other paintings by the artist. First of all, its main advantage is its special piercing and charm.
The horse resembles a young boy who is still full of energy. He bent his head to one side. His body is made in slightly broken forms. By the way, drawing in such a manner is characteristic of this artist. White color permeates the breast of the horse. At the same time, his mane and hooves give a blue. Due to this contrast, the horse looks very unusual. Anyway, it’s a bit unusual to see a blue horse.
The picture itself is made in a rather interesting color. Against these contrasting colors, the horse seems even more unusual. It seems that it complements the background, and the background, in turn, also complements the horse. These two objects simply could not exist without each other.

In the painting “Blue Horse” there is a significant predominance of blue. Here the artist connected the noble animal and the blue principle, creating something irresistible. However, this image is so compelling not only because of the color. The very form of the horse is also quite expressionistic, that is, it evokes different emotions in the soul of each person. Due to the fact that the head of the animal is bent, it seems that the horse is a susceptible creature that is also able to feel.
