Description
Waiting is an original 1974 oil on canvas by Australian artist Dale Marsh, depicting two draught horses harnessed to a cart with a seated driver.
Warm chestnut and golden tones bring the horses forward against a softly painted blue-green background. Broad brushwork and strong sunlight create a convincing sense of weight, warmth and stillness.
The composition celebrates the visual character of working horses and rural life. Its generous size and substantial gold-coloured frame make it a striking focal point for a collection or interior.
Signature and reverse documentation
Signed and dated “Dale Marsh 1974” lower right.
A Dale Marsh label on the reverse records the title Waiting and the medium oil on canvas. The reverse also retains a Print Decor framing stamp and handwritten notation, shown in the photographs.
