Horses of Iceland - Guadalupe Laiz

In this revised edition of the superb large-format, trilingual volume, first published in 2019, Guadalupe captures the beauty, strength, and gentleness of the Icelandic horses in a compelling pictorial journey. Guadalupe’s sensitive photographs—taken over a period of five years—showcase the inherent nature of the horses in intimate portraits and against Iceland’s dramatic landscapes. The magnificent colour and black-and-white images present the horses in fine detail, bringing the majestic animals to life. Guadalupe invites readers to share her love for Iceland and its indigenous horses. She has since returned to Iceland numerous times to photograph the horses for her follow-up publication, In the Land of Fire and Ice: Horses of Iceland (2025), in which she widens her lens to not only capture the horses, but to showcase their rugged, harsh, and unpredictable environment. This breathtaking volume is for fans of wildlife photography, nature conservation, and exploration travel, and anyone who admires and appreciates the sublime presence and pure beauty of the Icelandic horse.Text in English, French and German.
