Best known for her amazingly anthropomorphic and affectionate portraits of monkeys and bears, Jill Greenberg turns her lens to horses for her new photographic collection. This is the perfect gift for every horse lover. In this beautifully conceived volume, Jill Greenberg captures the powerful, romantic, and enigmatic nature of horses through her signature lens in photographs that make these animals all the more otherworldly yet familiar. Where Greenberg’s earlier books explored the mystery and depth of emotion behind some of nature’s most dangerous creatures (Kodiak and polar bears, baboons, and gibbons, among others), Horses is an elegiac exploration of these heroic and often idealized creatures. Transformed by Greenberg’s lens, the horse’s powerful physical beauty becomes a hyper-real vision, and her gorgeous prints seduce us in a subtle manner with their sensuous, painterly textures. Horses were Greenberg’s first muse and love, and for this portfolio she returns to her original inspiration.Featuring stunning photographs of a range of horse breeds, from Friesians and Andalusians to Arabian stallions, Lusitanos, and thoroughbred performance horses, this book is a gorgeous tribute to these spirited and powerful creatures and the perfect gift for those officially and unofficially devoted to horses, horseback riding, and racing.

Editorial Reviews

Review

"Romantic, powerful and mysterious, these beautiful creatures are at their best in these striking photographs by Greenberg, which emphasize their heroic, even mythical, stature." ~Women's Wear Daily

“THIS IS NOT your daughter’s pretty pony book. The subjects, selected for their musculature, look carved from onyx and marble..” ~Los Angeles Magazine

“Jill Greenberg captures the beauty and strength of the magnificent creatures. Greenberg revisits her lifelong fascination with horses to create stunning images of her equine subjects.” ~Four Seasons

“..the book is a closer look at the history and symbolism of horses in ways that deserve your undivided attention.” ~Complex

"Greenberg captures horses' primal beauty by homing in on tiny details, eyes, manes, taut muscles" ~Entertainment Weekly

Beautiful!

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on October 10, 2022

Verified Purchase

The book arrived in a timely fashion and is gorgeous! The one I ordered is in near perfect condition. The photos are beautiful. Everyone who has seen it loved it! Great gift for the horse lover. I liked it so much I ordered a second one for myself.

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on October 12, 2014

Verified Purchase

Not the incredible book I expected because too many of the really neat photographs were placed so that they were cut in the middle by the spine of the book. Unavoidable in this format. Perhaps they should consider changing that and making the book horizontal instead of vertical. That was the only problem, but it ruined a number of photos for me.

Bought this as a gift for my Wife as she is very familiar with Horses and this picture book took a different approach to photographing horses. More details than overall portrait photos.

This is a beautifully photographed coffee table book. The images are strikingly unique in that the way the photos are captured, you can clearly see the power and grace, the vibrance of the horses. I highly recommend this book to any horse lover.

Me ha encantado este libro, no solo por ser amante de los caballos, sino por ser una apasionada de la fotografía. Jill Greenberg sabe plasmar la esencia de un caballo en una foto y transmitir mensajes a través de ellas. Simplemente increíble.

Es handelt sich um einen Bildband. Ob man die Inszenierung der Pferde in Pose, Farbe und Licht mag oder nicht ist persönlicher Geschmack. Auf jeden Fall ist es interessant, sich dem Pferd in dieser Art zu nähern.

クオリティーの高い、インテリアとしても飾れる美しい写真集

Reviewed in Japan 🇯🇵 on January 19, 2014

Verified Purchase

以前、ある洋書店で見たのですが、頭から離れずアマゾンで探したところ販売していたので購入を決意、注文しました。
１ページ１ページ、溜め息が出るほどに、迫力ある洗練された写真が連なる美しい１冊です。写真の構図、センスなどは他の馬の写真集より、群を抜いてクオリティーが高い仕上がりです。
馬の愛らしい表情を集めた癒し系の写真集ではないが、写真１枚１枚がポスターとして、またインテリアとしても飾りたくなるような…そんな芸術性のある写真が勢揃いした傑作本だと思います。
届いた状態で、カバーの上部分が折れ曲がっていたので★を４つとさせていただきました。本の内容、クオリティーに関しては★５つです。
