Emil Volkers


"Lippizaner"(Lipizzan or Lipizzaner)

From "Abbildungen vorzüglicher Pferde-Rassen"(Illustrations of Excellent Breeds of Horses), by Emil Volkers 1880

I have collected Emil Volker equine prints for a number of years, and consider him to be one of the finest illustrators that has ever lived. Below are the Volker illustrations that I currently have in my collection, and the one above is the next one I hunger for, when "funds" become available. :)
