American · 1847–1917
Albert Pinkham Ryder (1847–1917) was an American artist. Ryder developed a highly personal practice associated with poetic landscapes, seascapes and allegorical subjects. His paintings often reduce a scene to a few strongly connected forms, allowing mood and symbolic suggestion to carry considerable weight. Death on a Pale Horse offers a clear example of that concentration. The rider's small scale does not weaken its importance; the surrounding track and sky make the figure a point of tension within the painting's broad sweep.
