NEWS & MEDIA
Spanish Mustangs in the Great American West
Spanish Mustangs is an unprecedented artistic and historical tribute to the horses that helped colonize the New World and whose blood still pumps in descendants that have been carefully conserved. In vivid photography and vibrant prose, this work captures the essence of their spirit, from the time they arrived in the dark holds of small boats five centuries ago through generations that have roamed plains and mountain ranges.
Gypsy Horses and the Travelers' Way
From tales told by the light of stick fires to the drumbeat of hooves across foggy moors, the new book Gypsy Horses and the Travelers’ Way unveils the mystery and magic embraced by the Romani Gypsies of northern England.
Spanish Mustangs in the Great American West
The horse is sacred to the Native American tribes, and Hockensmith's mastery captures the beauty and soul of our buffalo horse, the Spanish Mustang. As an artist, I appreciate the energy and magnitude of this book and the brilliance of the photography.
