''Red Cavalry'' is an
oil on canvas painting of 1932 by the Russian avant-garde artist
Kazimir Malevich
Kazimir Severinovich Malevich ; german: Kasimir Malewitsch; pl, Kazimierz Malewicz; russian: Казими́р Севери́нович Мале́вич ; uk, Казимир Северинович Малевич, translit=Kazymyr Severynovych ...
. It depicts
Red Cavalry horsemen racing across a plain, the ground beneath them illustrated with
Suprematist stripings of color. It is considered Malevich's only contribution into the pantheon of
Soviet art; Malevich intentionally dated the work to 1918, and added the blurb “From the capital of the October Revolution, the Red Cavalry rides to defend the Soviet frontier” on the back.
