About this artwork
This pastel work depicts the warmblood gelding Prinz, attentively listening – a homage to the horse's sensitive senses. It is the first work in a trilogy and references the pâte-sur-pâte technique of classical porcelain painting. Although it is a pastel work, the soft color scheme – particularly the dusky pink background – is reminiscent of the delicate tones and multi-layered transparency that result from working with porcelain slip.
Against the… reduced background, Prinz appears purist and clear, yet executed with a keen eye for detail. Every vein, every hair, is captured with utmost precision. The restrained color scheme emphasizes the horse's form and characteristic features rather than overpowering them—an aesthetic dialogue between classical painting and modern animal depiction.
