In an oil painting it is always better to start with the darkest colors. Correcting a part of the painting where the white color dominates is always very difficult. This was one of the cornerstones of the school of the master Fontanini (for this reason the apples, that is the first painted subject, had a black background). However, I have always liked challenges and so be it! So I looked for a scene where a white horse runs on a snowy expanse. It seemed to me the best choice to test my limits. Too bad that in the first version I completely got the proportions of the neck wrong and therefore the final version (the one reproduced here) is the second edition of the same subject.
