Black Among the Gold — Friesian Fine Art Portrait
From $450 Click photo for printing options and to purchase
The Friesian is a horse built for drama — the absolute black coat, the powerful baroque form, the presence that fills whatever space it enters — and in Black Among the Gold that drama finds its most unexpected and most beautiful setting. A dark Friesian stands in a Florida meadow filled with brilliant yellow wildflowers, the deep green of the forest rising behind it, and the contrast between the horse's jet black form and the vivid, saturated gold of the flowers surrounding it is so complete and so perfectly realized that the image reads almost as deliberate composition — as though someone had placed a black horse in a yellow field specifically to see what would happen. What happens is extraordinary. The dark coat absorbs the color around it rather than reflecting it, the Friesian's powerful outline sharp and absolute against the soft, nodding yellow flowers, the horse standing with the composed authority of an animal entirely indifferent to the beauty of its own situation. The deep green canopy of the Florida forest behind provides the third element that completes the palette — the green, the gold, and the black existing together in a combination of extraordinary richness and visual tension that gives the image a jewel-like quality unlike anything else in the Friesian collection. The wildflowers themselves are the great surprise of the image — unexpected in a Florida setting, generous in their coverage of the foreground, and perfectly scaled against the horse to give the composition the proportional balance that makes it immediately satisfying to the eye. On ChromaLuxe Metal or Lumachrome HD TruLife Acrylic, the extraordinary color richness and the dramatic tonal contrast of Black Among the Gold make it the most visually striking and compositionally distinctive piece in the Friesian series — a natural companion to Into the Mist and Black Diamond for collectors drawn to the Friesian in its most beautiful and unexpected settings.
