Original Painting of Two Galloping Horses by Tse Ye Mu - C3704A
This excellent rendition of a pair of horses galloping toward some unknown destination documents well just how talented Romando Vigil (1902-1978) Tse Ye Mu - Falling Cloud was as an artist. He was painting in the early 1900s at San Ildefonso and is considered one of the early self-taught artist from there. He was a leader within the San Ildefonso Watercolor Movement, a movement that caught fire during 1915 to 1917. It fostered an art form unmatched in the cultural history of the world. These men portrayed tribal culture and local wildlife, attaining a flat decorative character, absent of backgrounds and foregrounds, and free of traditional perspective, with an unerring color sense.
