The False Start by Edgar Degas. A horse surges forward as riders gather behind it. Hand-painted in oil on canvas.
Description
Description
A horse surges forward at a race start, with a rider leaning low over its back. Other horses and jockeys gather in the background beside a long rail. The open track and distant spectators create a broad setting.
About The False Start Reproduction
Brown and black horse shapes contrast with muted green ground and pale sky. The foreground horse stretches into a leap, while the back row of riders forms a darker band. The horizontal composition emphasizes forward motion. Soft shadows mark the track beneath the hooves.
The false start is of the title suggested by the abrupt movement and of the animal the clustered riders behind. The leaping horse creates the strongest diagonal, directing the eye across the course. Display horizontally to retain the full jump and background group. The horse stretches into a forward leap, with the body of the jockey low along its neck. Other horses wait near a rail in the background. The broad track and flat horizon leave room around the abrupt movement at the front of the scene. Other horses gather beyond a long rail, with small spectators visible beneath the dark grandstand. The front lifted legs of the horse and low rider form the clearest action. The leading horse surges forward with legs extended and the rider low over its back. Other horses crowd the start behind, with the track rail stretching across the middle distance.
