Assouline - Horses from Saudi Arabia

The land of Saudi Arabia shaped the Arabian horse, honing its unyielding athleticism, perfecting its distinct features, building its good temperament. Since the time of the Bedouin tribes, the Arabian horse has reigned supreme as the most prized species. Today, Saudi Arabia’s enthusiasm for equestrian life has led to the country hosting the world’s richest horse race in addition to numerous valuable and prestigious equine competitions and events. And now, as in the past, the Arabian horse stands apart from the rest, prouder, more valued and with no equal.

With original photography by Oliver Pilcher, Horses from Saudi Arabia presents the beauty of this beloved animal in its native landscape.
