Product information "Franz Marc: Picture 'Three Horses' (1912), framed"
Animals held a special fascination for him. As an artist, Franz Marc not only studied their anatomy in great detail, he also knew a great deal about their behaviour and gestures. And so animal motifs run through his entire artistic oeuvre, especially the depiction of horses. There are numerous drawings, the famous small sculpture 'Two Horses' from 1908/1909 - and of course works that have since become almost iconic, such as his 'Blue Horse' from 1911. The three horses from 1912 show Marc's understanding of nature and art particularly clearly: they virtually merge with the surrounding nature. The colours and forms of animal and landscape flow together to form a harmonious whole, which for Marc was nothing less than the universal unity of the world. Original: mixed media, privately owned. The original was auctioned at Christie's in London in 2018 for the equivalent of 17.5 million euros. At the time, this was the highest auction price for a work by Franz Marc.
