EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the sheer power and grace of a horse in mid-air, performing an impressive capriole. Taken from the renowned book "A Horse en Capriole from New Treatise for Breeding Horses" published in 1672, this image is a true testament to the timeless beauty of equestrian art. The artist, Peter Paul Troschel, skillfully engraved this masterpiece with intricate details that bring every muscle and sinew of the horse to life. The intensity captured in its eyes reflects both determination and elegance as it effortlessly executes this advanced haute ecole movement. The background setting transports us to an era where horsemanship was celebrated as an art form. This particular jump demonstrates not only the horse's athletic ability but also its training and discipline. It serves as a reminder of the deep connection between humans and horses throughout history. The dappled coat adds another layer of visual interest to this already mesmerizing composition. Its unique pattern enhances the overall aesthetic appeal while highlighting the contrast between light and shadow. Displayed at Central Saint Martins College of Art and Design in London, this print invites viewers to appreciate not only its artistic merits but also gain insight into historical breeding practices for horses. A true gem from Fine Art Finder's collection, it reminds us why equestrian art continues to captivate audiences across generations.
