The Artful Horse is devoted to the history and refinement of classical horsemanship. From the Iberian war horse to the Italian Renaissance academies and the French riding masters, our collections honor five centuries of European equestrian culture.
This framed matte canvas brings to life the capriole — the climactic leap from classical equestrian training, captured from George Lohneisen’s 1729 book illustration. Mounted in a slender pine frame, the print feels like a quiet moment in a riding school: tension in the muscles, air held for an instant, then release. It suits someone who lives for traditional horsemanship and antique prints — a study wall in a tack room, a reading nook next to a saddle stand, or a hallway where equestrian history quietly commands attention. The matte finish softens highlights, so the image reads like an old plate on paper, while the vivid inks keep the details crisp and alive. Hang it vertically beside a bridle rack, or go wider for a salon-style display alongside other period engravings to evoke a disciplined, elegant past.
