"Steady Boy"

Online Catalogue | Historical Art | Giclée Prints | First World War | "Steady Boy"

A British cavalryman calms his nervous horse, startled by a Bristol Fighter flying overhead, as they advance on the Western Front during the First World War. Graham Turner captures the bond between horse and rider in his sensitive tribute to the millions of horses that lost their lives during this conflict, which would see the old ways of waging war superceded by new technology and warfare on an industrial scale.

Giclée Print published from an oil painting by Graham Turner.

Each print individually printed to order on very high quality heavyweight paper, and then signed on the border by the artist.

" When I was researching the First World War figure for the set of army uniforms stamps I painted for the Royal Mail a few years ago, I came across a photo of a column of British cavalry crossing a trench, and one of the horses so reminded me of my own horse Magic that I vowed that I would one day paint something to try to capture the relationship between man and horse in such extreme circumstances...." Graham Turner
