We just learned about the famous work of art When Will You Marry? by French artist Paul Gauguin in 1892.
Another famous work of art is the The Tower of Blue Horses by German artist Franz Marc in 1913.
This picture is very large, over 6 feet tall and over 4 feet wide.
It is painted with very bright bold colors, and not the real colors of horses, but it is supposed to show how strong and beautiful they are.
The different lines and circles and other shapes are used to make it look like parts of the picture are in motion, and the colors of the picture go from darker at the bottom to lighter at the top to show how light shines down on the horses and their strong colors.
