Description

Fabio Petroni has loved horses ever since childhood-and inspired by a painting of Rembrandt, he has produced an exceptional and distinctive series of equine photos unlike any other. His clever use of light, a skill gained from Petroni's long experience as a still-life and portrait photographer, enabled him to create extremely original images, with a unique style that is further enhanced by the book's oversize format. From a colt trying to escape its overprotective mother to a shy horse who unexpectedly approaches the photographer, Petroni has truly captured the essence of these magnificent animals.
