Aachen Equestrian Beauty is a celebration in photographs of CHIO Aachen, the world’s greatest horse event held annually at Aachen in Germany and founded in 1898. Readers are treated to a front seat as the photographer follows the action, relishing this world festival of the horse and horsemanship.

As well as the traditional dressage and show jumping, CHIO Aachen includes eventers, carriage drivers and vaulters in stunning displays of horse riding skill. The book is a portrait of brilliant riders and beautiful horses, whose feats visitors marvel at every year as they compete in the superb Soers setting.

As well as winners and stars, the photographer includes the supporting cast, the gala opening and closing ceremonies and the Horse and Symphony programme, an evening of magical equestrian pageantry and music.

CHIO Aachen attracts all that is best in the horse world. The book is a lasting record of a glorious event.
