The Introducing the Limited Edition Australian Light Horseman and Waler Horse Painting is a poignant image that beautifully captures the deep bond between the Australian Light Horseman and his loyal Waler horse. During World War I, these brave men and their horses relied on each other for their survival and wellbeing. The loyalty, respect, and affection between them became legendary. Just like the troopers, the Waler horses were bred in Australia and had developed a strong constitution that served them well in the harsh desert regions of Egypt, Sinai, Palestine, and Syria.
This painting showcases the willingness and heart of both man and horse, their determination to keep going even in the most difficult and dangerous conditions. The troopers carried their meagre food rations and precious water supply in their 1-quart water bottles, knowing that without water, both man and horse would succumb to dehydration and heat exhaustion.
