The Great European Schools of Classical Dressage - Vienna, Saumur, Jerez, Lisbon
For the best part of 400 years, four illustrious riding schools have striven for perfection in the equestrian art: the Spanish Riding School in Vienna, the Cadre Noir in Saumur, the Royal Andalusian School of Equestrian Art in Jerez, and the Portuguese School of Equestrian Art in Lisbon.
Illustrated with stunning photography, this book reveals the schools' individual cultural and artistic traditions, their functioning, the recruitment and training of the riders, their horses, and finally what the future holds for these prestigious establishments. A must for every enthusiast.
