Description |
Français :
La peinture représente le marché aux chevaux à Paris, et le dôme de La Salpétrière est visible dans le fond. C'est une version réduite du tableau original de Rosa Bonheur 'Le marché aux chevaux', exposé au Salon de 1853 (New York, Metropolitan Museum). Bien qu'achevé et signé par Rosa Bonheur, ce tableau fut débuté par son amie de longue date et compagne Nathalie Micas. Le négociant Ernest Gambart l'acquit en 1855, et il fut gravé par Thomas Landseer.
