EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph taken in December 1915, we are transported back to a training session during World War I. The image showcases the incredible skill and bravery of Canadian rough riders as they engage in the ancient equestrian sport of tentpegging. The scene is set against the picturesque English landscape, with a group of male soldiers on horseback forming a tight formation in an open field. Their horses, strong and majestic working animals, stand at attention as their riders prepare for the event. With lances held high, these courageous men embody the spirit of camaraderie and determination that defined the Canadian army during this tumultuous time. The historical significance of this moment cannot be understated. As war raged across Europe, these brave individuals found solace and purpose through their shared love for horsemanship. This photo serves as a powerful reminder not only of their military prowess but also highlights an important aspect of Canadian culture. Preserved by Getty Images' archival collection, this print captures a fleeting yet significant chapter in history - one that intertwines human interest with military politics. It stands as a testament to the resilience and dedication exhibited by those who fought bravely during World War I. This stunning visual from Fine Art Storehouse allows us to reflect upon our past while appreciating both the beauty and strength embodied by these remarkable individuals and their loyal equine companions
