Description

The oil painting shows the expressive head of the thoroughbred Arabian mare Nordin in impressive detail. The mare's noble, slightly curved neck leads to her noble, finely trimmed head, with large, lively eyes that testify to intelligence and gentleness. The nostrils are finely designed and testify to the elegance and nobility of this noble animal. The imposing baroque frame that surrounds the painting reinforces its effect. The frame is in black and gold, richly decorated and impresses with its artfully carved three-dimensional ornaments.

About the artist

Horst Ludwig, born in 1946, is a renowned artist with many years of experience and expertise in the field of painting. Animals, especially horses, have been his loyal companions since childhood. In his youth, Horst Ludwig often accompanied painters and picture restorers in the old churches and cathedrals of the former GDR and was part of the community of freelance painters. There he learned various painting techniques and his talent was recognized and encouraged. His passion for painting was shaped in this community. He is the proud father of two daughters and unfortunately, after 57 happy years of marriage, the love of his life passed away in February 2023. Today, living together with Arabian thoroughbreds and breeding them still shapes Horst Ludwig's everyday family life. As a free spirit and artist, Horst Ludwig lives and works on the island of Rügen, near Stralsund, on the family property. His studio is affectionately called "Kleckshäuschen". The name of his studio, "al Kuhl", is derived from the Arabic word "al-kuhl". For the painter, this term symbolizes the beauty, elegance and grace of Arabian horses as well as the trust and love between horse and human. His passion for horses and for life in all its facets is reflected in his works. The painter exhibits regularly and his studio is open to visitors, who are given a warm welcome.
