This masterful engraving by T. A. Prior, after a painting by James Ward, R.A., presents a majestic gathering of horses in a serene, natural setting. The scene shows a wide variety of horses—standing, grazing, and resting—beneath a large central tree, as if assembled in a dignified meeting or “council.” The composition emphasizes the strength, grace, and individuality of each animal, reflecting Ward’s exceptional skill in animal portraiture. With its dramatic contrasts, rich detail, and pastoral background, the image conveys both nobility and tranquility, celebrating the natural beauty and intelligence of the horse.
