Product Description
“From the outset I felt quite strongly that I wanted to celebrate the horse in its own right.” —Tim Flach, photographer No animal has captured the human imagination quite like the horse, depicted in media from cave drawings thousands of years ago through countless renderings in paint, clay, ink, even film. Award-winning photographer Tim Flach’s quest to document the horse has resulted in Equus, an intensely moving look at an animal—as solitary subject and en masse, from the air and from underwater—whose history is so powerfully linked to our own. From exquisite Arabians in the Royal Yards of the United Arab Emirates to purebred Icelandic horses in their glacial habitat; from the soulful gaze of a single horse’s lash-lined eye to the thundering majesty of thousands of Mustangs racing across the plains of Utah, Equus provides an amazing and unique insight into the physical dynamics and spirit of the horse.

 not worth it November 24, 2008

Although there are a few very beautiful - even magical - photos in this book, I regret buying it. It is not worth its price. I am a fan of artistic photos, so the fact that the most pictures show only parts of horses doesn't bother me. What does, is that there is so much space lost in this book. There are many pages left blank (black or white), so the thickness of the book tricks you. There are far less photos in it than one might expect. I counted the blank pages out of curiosity: 86 out of 300 pages are blank; that is almost a third! What a shame! In addition to that, most photos aren't even full-page.
For the money that I paid, I expected some more.

Equus is the most beautiful book I have ever seen. I absorbed every photograph and did the soft hummm sound many times. It struck such a chord with me. I love the equine form, but had not thought of the creature as sculpture before. I believe you have to be a 'horse lover to the bone' to appreciate all of these photographs.
Gorgeous book October 29, 2008
I bought this book for my 12 year old Grandson for a Christmas gift. It is a beautiful book and as a horse lover he will be thrilled with the book.
Tim Flach's book is superb! A must-have... October 24, 2008
Equus is a fine art book, but it is also far more than that. This book is about fantastic photography, it is art in movement. If you love horses and appreciate amazing photography this book is an absolute must-have! LOVE IT!
Wonderful October 16, 2008

A friend gave this to me for my birthday and I LOVE it. It lets you use your imagination with its artistic, beautiful photography. My 7 year old daughter loved it, too.
