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.<\/p>\n
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.<\/p>\n
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.<\/p>\n
