Making Ready, 1917
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating oil painting by Walter Ufer that beautifully captures the essence of horseback riding in the early twentieth century. The painting showcases a sportswoman and a sportsman preparing for their ride in a picturesque country setting. Bathed in natural light, they contemplate their journey ahead while standing outside a rustic building. The artist's attention to detail is evident as he skillfully portrays the two riders with dark hair and brown attire, highlighting their anticipation and aversion before setting off. The horses, adorned with blankets and saddles, stand patiently nearby, ready to embark on this adventure. Ufer's mastery of color shines through as he paints vibrant blue skies contrasting against yellow fields. Shadows add depth to the scene while capturing the time of day perfectly. The composition invites viewers to join these characters as they depart into nature's embrace. This American painting from the early 20th century not only celebrates equestrianism but also evokes feelings of freedom and exploration. It serves as a testament to our enduring connection with animals and our desire to venture into uncharted territories. As we gaze upon "Making Ready" we are transported back in time, reminded of simpler days when people relied on horses for transportation and sought solace in nature's beauty. This artwork is an exquisite representation of equine artistry that continues to captivate audiences today.
