Russian Cavalry Competition / Saddle & Tack

[Dan Morton]

Web stumbling again...this is some kind of Russian cavalry competition. I don't read Russian. Some of the competitors are dressed in Imperial Russian costume. Some in White Russian (1919) costume. Some in more modern. But it's the horse and rider poses that make this fascinating! Quality of the 60+ photos is superb! There is one picture of some re-enactors sitting in the stands - several classic Russian faces that would be great to sculpt! Enjoy!

Check out the two e-Bay listings on this Military Horse Forum page for photos of a Cossack saddle and all the tack that goes with it!
