'''''Landscape, Horse on the Road''''' is an 1899 oil on canvas painting by [[Paul Gauguin]], now in the [[Pushkin Museum]] in Moscow.
==History==
Painted in [[Tahiti]], the work was not immediately sent to Europe, going instead with the artist's luggage from Tahiti to the [[Marquesas Islands]]. In 1903, from [[Hiva Oa]] in the Marquesas archipelago, Gauguin sent it to his dealer [[Ambroise Vollard]] Paris, making this work and nine others the last shipment he sent to France before his death.<ref>{{in lang|ru}} Marina Alexandrovna Bessonova and E.

Пушкина.'' — М.: Красная площадь, 2001. — 399 с. — ISBN 5-900743-58-6., p.78</ref>
It was bought from Vollard on 10 November 1904 by [[Sergei Shchukin]] under the title ''Landscape''.<ref>Перцов П., ''Щукинское собрание французской живописи.
