Horses of the Camargue

Horses of the Camargue by Delavoie, Sophie. hardcover edition. ISBN: 9780810935457.

In this handsome volume, renowned photographer Hans Silvester points his lens at the famous horses of the Camargue region in southern France. Since prehistoric times, these rugged animals have run free in the vast swamps of the Rhone delta, where they have adapted to harsh conditions by banding together in small herds. Thanks to the remarkable ability of the photographer to gain the trust of wild creatures, we can observe the fierce white stallions as they protect their mares and foals and forage in their hostile but spectacular environment. This book offers a rare glimpse of wild horse behavior that will intrigue all horse lovers and fans of animal photography.
