Title - Here She Comes!(1913)

Artist - Jack Butler Yeats

''Here She Comes' was described in the Studio in 1921 as one of the outstanding works in the exhibition. 'It stood nearly beyond vision, being skied ...'; but this did not detract from the reviewer's opinion of its excellence. It is a diagonal view of one sulky drawn by a pale grey pony chasing another round the corner of the racing-track. There are figures of spectators and stall vendors in the foreground. The strong shadows and bright colours anticipate paintings of five years later, when Yeats had a constant interest in the effects of shadow; and there is a clever use of space, divided into still and active areas, reminiscent of early watercolours such as A Runaway.

This work has the alternative titles of 'Now She's Coming', or 'Trotting Match'..
