Product Description

No animal has captured the human imagination quite like the horse, depicted in cave drawings thousands of years ago through countless renderings in paint, clay, ink, even film. In his first book, award-winning photographer Tim Flach's quest to document the horse has resulted in "Equus", an intensely moving look at an animal - as solitary subject and en masse, from the air and from underwater - whose history is so powerfully linked to our own. From exquisite Arabians in the Royal Yards of the United Arab Emirates to purebred Icelandic horses in their glacial habitat; from the soulful gaze of a single horse's lash-lined eye to the thundering majesty of thousands of Mustangs racing across the plains of Utah, "Equus" provides an amazing and unique insight into the physical dynamics and spirit of the horse.

Review
Horses, seen through the eyes of Brit photographer Tim Flach in his first book Equus, have an almost abstract beauty, enhanced by his eye for texture, tone and movement. --Elle Decoration, November 2008

Equus
This is a beautiful book by photographer Tim Flach with stunning and unusual photographs of horses (and some other animals in the equus family). Everyone who has seen my book has loved it. It would make a very good present for people who are interested in horses or photography. It is a large book approximately 37cm wide x
29cm. It has photographs of everything from an embryo to horses photographed all over the world. It seems very good value for a book of this quality and size.

Stunning
Wow,this is a book that you will look at time and time again. The photographs are stunning and beautiful at the same time. What will Tim be photographing next?

Stunning
Stunning photographic images of the horse whether in their natural environment or under human influence. A true masterpiece which will last a lifetime.
