Foal and mare at a gallop – movement against a black background by Laura Georgi Tier- und Ladschaftsfotografie

The foal in front, the mare behind – both at full gallop. The chestnut horse lifts its front legs
, its white pasterns flashing as the sand
billows beneath its hooves. Its body stretches out, the short, bristly mane billowing in the wind, and its
gaze fixed ahead. Behind him, the dark mare keeps pace, her head above the
back of her foal, her tail stretched out horizontally. Two animals, one
rhythm.

In their first few weeks, foals move with an energy they can barely
control – they dash off, brake abruptly, buck and return to their
mother. This image captures precisely such a moment: no training, no
command, just exuberance, and the mare runs alongside because she has to.

The black background strips away everything else in the surroundings, whilst the light strip of sand at the
bottom edge provides a foundation for the movement. The side lighting sculpts the muscles and
makes the copper-red foal’s coat glow against the mare’s almost black coat.

As a wall hanging, this motif is lively and warm. It makes the strongest impression in large format at
– above the sofa, in the hallway, on the staircase, in children’s and teenagers’ bedrooms,
in the tack room, at the riding stables, on breeding farms, in equestrian shops and
country hotels. The three-dimensional effect really stands out on acrylic glass or aluminium Dibond,
whilst on fine art paper the black appears more velvety.

A gift for a new baby, for Mother’s Day, for riders, breeders and
anyone who loves horses in motion.
