Fabulous Vintage Equestrian Oil Painting by Noted Equestrian and Horse Painter, John Nelson Slick. (1901-1979) Superb example of the realistic horse portraiture that James (JN) Slick is known for. Dating to the mid-century. Gorgeous coloration in this oil on canvas of a handsome black stallion. The play of light on the sleek fur, the horse’s intelligent gaze and the richness of the background colors of the sky are a few of the striking features of this piece. Professionally framed in a natural linen mat and streamlined black wood frame. Measuring 21.67”w x 1.25”d x 25.5” JN Slick is an internationally noted painter specializing in equestrian portraiture and horse sporting scenes.
