His paintings – landscapes with rural scenes being enacted in them – are full of movement, small dramas and incident, capturing the imagination of the viewer.\n\nA billowing cloud, its shape and movement echoed in the tree that pierces the sky, sets the busy, almost turbulent, atmosphere. The blacksmith shoeing the white horse raises a strong arm. Around him boys busy themselves with buckets, while the horse’s elegant owner supports its leg. A rider comes up the hill at a pace, while on the right another – and more uncomfortable – procedure is taking place, the horse’s head thrown back and its mouth open.\n\nWouwerman was able to breathe life into the everyday activities and scenes he painted – you can almost sense the noise, the smells and the chill breeze suggested here.\" - (\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.nationalgallery.org.uk\/paintings\/philips-wouwerman-a-horse-being-shod-outside-a-village-smithy\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"National Gallery of Art London - A Horse being Shod outside a Village Smithy\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eNational Gallery of Art, London\u003c\/a\u003e)\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Philips Wouwerman","offers":[{"title":"No Size Selected (Select a Size)","offer_id":50509904543987,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Replica Size (18 1\/8\" x 24 1\/2\")","offer_id":50509904576755,"sku":null,"price":822.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Signature Size (15 3\/8\" x 20 3\/4\")","offer_id":50509904609523,"sku":null,"price":695.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Classic Size (18 7\/8\" x 25 1\/2\")","offer_id":50509904642291,"sku":null,"price":895.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Gallery Size (23 1\/8\" x 31 1\/4\")","offer_id":50509904675059,"sku":null,"price":1295.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Statement Size (29 3\/4\" x 40 1\/4\")","offer_id":50509904707827,"sku":null,"price":1995.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Grand Size (35 3\/4\" x 48 1\/4\")","offer_id":50509904740595,"sku":null,"price":2795.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Estate Size (42 1\/8\" x 57\")","offer_id":50509904773363,"sku":null,"price":3695.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Museum Size (50 5\/8\" x 68 3\/8\")","offer_id":50509904806131,"sku":null,"price":4995.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0827\/5738\/6483\/files\/AHorsebeingShodoutsideaVillageSmithy.jpg?v=1789266771","url":"https:\/\/commissionedpaintings.com\/products\/a-horse-being-shod-outside-a-village-smithy-ngal1408","provider":"Commissioned Paintings","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
