Salvete Omnes,
so our 2023 summer is ending - c'est la vie.
how are your horse things these days - I try going to the stables often, and enjoy the summer-sleek horses prancing in green meadows etc.
ad rem, a quick entry -
I have been looking at some paintings by Abraham van Calraet - a Dutch painter living during the Age of Opulence in Low Countries (always like that book by Simon Schama - The Embarrassment of Riches - some more detailed infor on the book here )
So these saddles are quite interesting -
from the traditional large one - look at that Paint
to a version, in leather most likely - with nice -:) grey horses
to more peculiar saddles , some quite flat almost in the English saddle fashion - starting with this palomino steed
these spotted horses -
do enjoy these beautiful horses and their riders etc
Valete
