Did You Know?
In 1863, Benouville was named a Knight in the Legion of Honor, the highest French order of merit.Description
The darkly shaded trees and turbulent sky introduce a romantic sentiment into this classical or ideal landscape in which a lone rider on horseback gallops through a deep space. The composition is organized into three clearly defined zones that recede from the path in the foreground, to the lake or river in the middle ground, to the distant rocky mountain and sea.- -2010Muriel Butkin [1915-2008] Shaker Heights, OH bequeathed to the Cleveland Museum of Art2010-The Cleveland Museum of Art, Cleveland, OH
