"Horse Breeding: A Journey Through Time and Cultures" Step into the world as we explore its rich history and diverse cultures. From the legendary Minoru, who triumphed in both the Derby and 2000 Guineas races in 1909, to captivating artwork by WW Rouch depicting this majestic process. The chromolitho piece titled "Connaught, Horse Breeding" takes us on a visual journey through the meticulous art of breeding horses. The engraving "Show of Thoroughbred Stallions at Nottingham" showcases the pride and elegance associated with these magnificent creatures. Traveling across continents, we find ourselves in Chicago's Washington Park Club during the early 1900s. Here, an unknown artist captures a moment that encapsulates American horse breeding heritage. Delving further back in time, we encounter a fascinating German anomaly from 1722 - "A freak in colour. " This peculiar creature stands out amidst traditional breeds with its unique appearance. "Lily Agnes, " accompanied by Orelio sired by Bend Or, emerges as a winner of £4955 in 1894. This success story exemplifies how careful selection and pairing can lead to remarkable achievements. Our journey then takes us to Italy where an Italian Neapolitan horse from 1722 is showcased. Its regal stature reflects centuries-old equestrian traditions deeply ingrained within Italian culture. Venturing eastward towards Turkey, we discover various Arabian horses favored by Turkish Sultans and Pashas alike for their gracefulness and versatility. These animals embody prestige and power within Ottoman society during the early 18th century. Exploring beyond Europe into Persia (now Iran), we uncover ancient depictions of polo matches dating back to the 10th century. Witnessing mares nurturing their foals amidst Persian landscapes reminds us of nature's role in shaping these noble creatures' lineage throughout history. An art form that transcends time and borders.
