Titled Lotning, meaning 'great respect' in Icelandic, this powerful oil on canvas painting captures the majestic presence of an Icelandic mare galloping straight ahead. Viewed from the front, the horse’s mane flows wildly in the air, painted in striking shades of black, white, red, blue, and purple. Its body, rendered in black and white, contrasts beautifully with the colorful background, all blending into a darker, more dramatic tone. The dynamic movement and rich color contrasts evoke a sense of strength, freedom, and dignity, honoring the noble spirit of the Icelandic horse. Lotning is a tribute to the profound respect and admiration we hold for these remarkable creatures.
