Salvete Omnes,
today is Nowruz, the ancient Zoroastrian holiday of the new year, also celebrated by the pagan Slavic peoples as Jare Gody.

and a little beauty of a horse from our Polish maestro Tadeusz Ajdukiewicz for this New Year
This painting is supposedly titled A Turkish Courtyard - showing a groom with a saddled beautiful chestnut horse (Polish name: cisek, cisawy, & kasztan) - from Artnet or Mutual art,

Interesting blog. I love to read about horses. I admire their beauty and versatility. I found this blog when reading in an old book about Gustaphus Adolphus fallen horse that is on show in Ingolstadt. So happy that horses are not needed in war any more. Best regards Minou from Sweden
