Horse in Lascaux cave |
Horses have been the subject of art renderings that date back to prehistoric times. Some of the most famous depictions of horses were found in the famous Lascaux caves and are estimated to be about 16,000 years old. From racehorses to workhorses, horses have been revered throughout history. In the past when horses were used as a means of transportation, these great creatures took soldiers into battle. As a result, artists felt compelled to capture the horses' majestic demeanor. Though they are less well represented today, horses are still considered a favorite subject of some artists.
