EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving titled "Ancient English Horse Exercise" takes us back to the 18th century, offering a glimpse into the equestrian world of that time. The print showcases a group of soldiers engaged in rigorous training on horseback, highlighting the importance of cavalry and military preparedness during this era. The image captures the essence of an army's dedication to honing their skills in combat. Clad in traditional plate armor and armed with pistols, these cavalrymen demonstrate their proficiency while riding powerful horses. The scene exudes strength, discipline, and unity as they navigate through various exercises. It is fascinating to observe how this artwork reflects both Germanic and British influences. With its origins in England but also depicting elements associated with Germany, it serves as a testament to the interconnectedness of European cultures during this period. Beyond its historical significance, this engraving offers a window into the rich heritage of horseback riding as a sport and mode of transportation. It reminds us that throughout history, horses have played an integral role not only in warfare but also in leisure activities such as riding parties. Preserved within private collections today, prints like these allow us to appreciate the artistry and craftsmanship involved in capturing moments from our past. They serve as reminders of our shared cultural heritage while inspiring curiosity about bygone eras when horsemanship was essential for military prowess.
