Signed by Raoul Dufy himself, this exuberant equestrian scene captures the Kessler family on horseback beneath a canopy of dappled trees—rendered in his signature style of fluid ink outlines dancing freely over luminous washes of coral, lavender, and jade. One of the great celebrants of joie de vivre in modern art, Dufy fills every inch of this generous canvas with movement, light, and the effortless elegance that made him one of the most beloved painters of the 20th century.
