"Blue Horse I" (German: "Blaues Pferd I") is a celebrated expressionist painting by German artist Franz Marc, created in 1911. This iconic work is part of a series in which Marc explored the spiritual and emotional resonance of color, attributing blue to the masculine, yellow to the feminine, and red to the physical – all central themes in his oeuvre. The painting is a striking example of Marc's fascination with animals, particularly horses, which he believed possessed a purity and spiritual connection to nature lost to humanity.

In "Blue Horse I," Marc depicts a solitary horse in profile against a landscape of abstract forms and vibrant colors. The horse is rendered in a deep, rich blue, which for Marc symbolized spirituality and nobility. The simplification of the horse's form, along with the use of bold, non-naturalistic colors, reflects Marc's desire to capture the essence of the animal beyond its physical appearance. The painting's composition, with its dynamic lines and juxtaposition of colors, conveys a sense of harmony and tranquility, embodying the artist's belief in the unity of nature and the spiritual world.

As a member of Der Blaue Reiter (The Blue Rider), a group of artists united in their interest in expressing spiritual truths through art, Franz Marc played a pivotal role in the development of German Expressionism. "Blue Horse I" is a seminal work within this movement, exemplifying the group's innovative approach to color, form, and the representation of the natural world. The painting is not only a testament to Marc's artistic vision but also a reflection of the broader expressionist quest to convey deeper emotional and spiritual states through the medium of art.

Today, "Blue Horse I" is held in high regard as a masterpiece of early 20th-century art and is housed in the collection of the Städtische Galerie im Lenbachhaus in Munich, Germany. Its enduring appeal lies in its powerful use of color and form to evoke an emotive response, making it a significant work in the history of modern art.
