The work depicts a Spanish stallion whose head fills the frame like a close-up portrait. Though full of power and energy that make the subject intimidating, the horse meets the artist with a softness and relaxation she has seldom seen. The black-and-white adds a painterly touch to this truly balanced subject, which meets the artist and her lens with curiosity and calmness. The vignetting of an already heavy composition emphasizes the photographer’s deep connection with a horse, conveying beauty and groundedness.

Anna Archinger

Anna Archinger (b. 1994, Neuburg an der Donau) is a self-taught German artist based in Dronningmølle, Denmark. Anna has worked as a professional photographer since 2022. Her art practice focuses on horse photography as her fascination with horses goes beyond a mere passion. She lives at the farm Enggaarden, an education center specialized in teaching the “Academic Art of Riding”, where her connection to horses recalls seminal artists’ fascination with horse study. Within the last three years, Anna has been elaborating a stunning body of equine artwork, some of which was distinguished with the Honorable Mention in the Professional category by International Photo Awards USA (2023) and was shortlisted in a private competition run by the Motif Collective Photography Gallery, (2023). Anna’s work is also scheduled to be presented to the public throughout 2024 in venues such as The Glasgow Gallery of Photography (Glasgow, United Kingdom), the Black and White Photography Festival (Athens), and the Chateau Gallery (Louisville).
