Keith Shackleton White Horses Print - Very Good Condition - An original oil painting on board by Keith Shackleton, dated 1969 and titled White Horses. The work features a dynamic composition of two white horses rendered in a cool-toned palette dominated by muted blues, whites, and greys. The artist employs confident, fluid brushwork with impasto highlights to define the muscular anatomical forms of the horses against a textured, impressionistic background evocative of wind or water. The horses are shown in a stylized mid-century manner, characteristic of Shackleton’s professional work as a prominent wildlife and maritime artist. The composition emphasizes fluid motion and ethereal lighting, typical of his late 1960s period. The piece is presented in a cream-painted wooden frame with a gilt inner slip. The work is signed Keith Shackleton 69 in the lower right corner. The support is a plywood board.
