This weeks artsy horse post is a little different from the last few. While it still comes from the same book, these illustrations may be better used for information than coloring.
Interesting Nonetheless
These drawings come from a book titled Horsemanship for Women, published in 1887 by Theodore Hoe Mead & illustrated by Gray Parker. Although they may not be a budding artist’s dream, they are still helpful illustrations for some disciplines. If you want something with a little more horse to color, check out parts one, two, three & four.
Not Quite Finished
I’ve really enjoyed this series and not just for the beautiful illustrations. Each drawing provides a little look back into another time, a time when women rode with both legs on the same side of the horse. Be sure to check out parts one, two, three & four too.
