Painting of Three Horses in Motion

This is an oil or acrylic painting on canvas, depicting three horses in what appears to be a dynamic, racing or galloping stance. The horses are portrayed in profile, facing left, with their heads and partial bodies visible. The color palette is rich and somewhat impressionistic, featuring shades of brown, sienna, deep blue, hints of purple, and ochre, blended to create a sense of movement and energy. The background is a warm, swirling beige or light orange, suggesting dust or wind, which enhances the feeling of speed. The horse in the foreground on the left is a reddish-brown with lighter flecks, while the central horse has a prominent dark blue-black mane and face, with shimmering blue and yellow highlights on its body. The third horse, partially obscured, appears in similar warm brown tones. The painterly style uses visible brushstrokes, particularly evident in the swirling background and the horses' manes and coats, which contribute to the expressive quality of the piece. The overall condition appears good, with no immediately visible damage such as tears, cracks, or significant abrasions on the canvas. The painting is housed in a simple, light-colored wooden 'floater' frame, which allows the full canvas edge to be visible, suggesting a more contemporary presentation. A signature 'Baker '99' is present in the lower right corner, indicating a possible artist and date of creation, placing its style generally within the late 20th century.
