Description
I went on a plein air outing to a cattle ranch in Wheatland, California. At the ranch I saw this horse and asked the owner what kind of horse was it. She said it was a Haflinger and her grand daughter loves to ride that horse. I had to look up what a Haflinger was since I don’t know anything about horses.
The Haflinger, also known as the Avelignese, is a breed of horse developed in Austria and northern Italy (namely Hafling in South Tyrol region) during the late nineteenth century. Haflinger horses are relatively small, are always chestnut with flaxen mane and tail, have distinctive gaits described as energetic but smooth, and are well-muscled yet elegant. The breed traces its ancestry to the Middle Ages. Haflingers have many uses including light draft, harness work and various under-saddle disciplines such as endurance riding, dressage, equestrian vaulting and therapeutic riding. They are also still used by the Austrian and German armies for work in rough terrain.
This 12” X 16” watercolor painting was painted on Arches, rough, 140 lb paper.
