Equine Art and Creative Artists

Learn more about how horses have been depicted in art throughout history. Horse Illustrated also covers the stories of modern-day equine artists. From ancient Greek statues of beautiful, strong war horses to cave drawings, such as those at Lascaux, France, to depictions from Native Americans of their steady steeds, the horse has fascinated man throughout history. And that fascination lives on today through modern-day artists who create art with horses in sculpture, paintings, murals, photography, carvings, drawings, and across other mediums. One of the most popular types of equine art is that of Western artists depicting the cowboy way of life. Learn more about the lives of artists who are depicting the natural beauty of horses, the strength of competition horses, and the equine lifestyle as a whole.
