Strange ...
Horse badly drawn, and "form wrinkled."
Works by this artist are more strict and clear picture.
Maybe this is a later copy of a painting by this artist?

And I would even say that it is a horse ...

Who, who? The horse in the coat!
 

Oh, an elephant, I did not notice on the horse ..... not argue .....

I like the horse and it's all right.
Typical optical form for 70s in the 19th century, well preserved.
In this technique, and wrote German and Austrian "zveryushniki" who borrowed sow the English artists of the first half of the 19th century.
As I understand, to compare the artist's hand, pictures were taken from the Internet.
There is practically no real photos, in the mass scans from different catalogs of auctions.
On such scans no sense to judge and compare.
By the way, not all of which "swim" through Google, the originals. In Europe, the work of the 19th century is not subject rarely perelitsovyvayut. Since the leading lights of this theme consistently sold at auction between 2000 euro and good for the local market niche.
About drawing horses you are not quite right.
Go to a museum Timiryazevke horse out there on the walls of the original and the best Russian "near" Russian 19th century.
Works with virtually no restoration, but slightly run wonderful.
You are greatly surprised.

And me and the statement of the artist:

I agree, the skill is different.

Here's his horse:

Yes, I agree with everything expressed.

And most likely, the picture is not for the Russian market.
Remember all the horses look.
 

Why am I Burenka you sell?
