Neptune's Horse — Camargue Fine Art Portrait
From $450 Click photo for printing options and to purchase
The ancient Romans called them the horses of Neptune — the white horses of the Camargue, emerging from the sea marshes of the French Mediterranean coast as though delivered by the god of the ocean himself, and in Neptune's Horsethat mythology finds its most complete and beautiful visual expression. A white Camargue charges directly toward the lens through an explosion of backlit surf, the spray surrounding the horse in a halo of shattered light that makes the boundary between the animal and the water impossible to locate — the horse is of the water, not merely in it, every droplet catching the backlight in a burst of silver and white that gives the image the quality of something conjured rather than merely photographed. The breed has lived in the wetlands and salt marshes of the Camargue for thousands of years, developing in near isolation into an animal of extraordinary hardiness and beauty — small and powerful, with the particular quality of self-possession that belongs to horses that have never entirely belonged to human civilization. Here, in the surf, that self-possession is absolute — the horse driving forward through the breaking water with the energy and authority of something entirely in its element, the pale coat and the white spray and the backlight merging into a composition of almost supernatural luminosity. On ChromaLuxe Metal or Lumachrome HD TruLife Acrylic, the extraordinary luminosity and the mythological power of Neptune's Horse render with a brilliance and depth that makes it the most visually spectacular piece in the Camargue collection — a natural companion to Born of the Sea and Titans of the Sea for collectors drawn to the ancient white horses of the French Mediterranean coast.
