Two Horses in a Meadow near a Gate
1649
Two horses stand on a little rise before a sweeping meadow landscape with cattle. The town of Delft is
visible in the distance. The animals’ fluttering tails and manes, and the low-lying clouds, signal that the
weather is raw and windy. Potter enhances the liveliness of the depiction by placing the grey horse before
a dark boscage and the chestnut horse before a light, cloud-filled sky.
