A sweeping tribute to the horse's timeless allure, this collection reveals how artists across centuries--from ancient sculpture to contemporary photography to painting--have drawn inspiration from its grace, strength, and mystery, shaping the course of art and culture. Lavishly illustrated, this volume brings together iconic works by John Baldessari, Edgar Degas, Richard Prince, and Marina Abramovic; striking sculptural tributes by Alexander Calder and Maurizio Cattelan; and unforgettable photography by Tracey Emin, William Eggleston, Norman Parkinson, Helmut Newton, and Nan Goldin. Each contribution deepens the dialogue between artist and animal, weaving a dynamic tapestry of movement, emotion, and expression. The meticulously sequenced plates are married with incisive, thoughtful texts. The result is an immersive journey of discovery--and an elegant, authoritative celebration of the horse's majesty and its limitless power to inspire across every era.
