The Trail of Painted Ponies-Forever Young
Tax excluded. Shipping calculated at checkout
Trail of Painted Ponies "Forever Young," 1E/1,375.
Developed during the Middle Ages as a war horse because of its height and speed and ability to carry knights in full armor on their backs, the Friesian almost faced extinction by the end of World War II, before it was crossbred with other selected types of horses to produce animals suitable not only for sport disciplines but carriage driving. With its heavy stature, noble head set on a high arched neck, long and flowing mane and tail, and willing temperament, a crossbred Friesian mare with its young foal running beside her is a vision of the past as well as the future. Ornament also available.
