This glorious Lipizzaner stallion is the second release by artist Michelle Platt. Featuring the dancing
white stallion performing the Haute Ecole, "airs above the ground" movement known as the capriole.
The origin of this move dates back to the times when horses were used in the military, and the mighty
leap, accompanied by kicking back hooves, both evaded and stunned the enemy. Here, Michelle has
captured the graceful movement and the joy of a young stallion performing the movement for the very
first time.
The Lipizzan horse was made famous by the Spanish Riding School of Vienna. The breed is
characterized by rounded lines and old-fashioned Iberian conformation. This breed has both the
strength and musculature to perform the magical movements known as the 'airs above the ground'.
