A curious quartet! Straps, curb chains, harnesses and stirrups are gathered into bright bouquets, like cut flowers. Tassles hang like clustered bluebells, leather straps are tied into bows, spurs resemble starry daisies, bits are looped like flower garlands, and riding crops become calyxes. Horses' heads, their manes rippling and ringletted, burst from the sheaves like wild blooms. Arranged on horse blankets, folded to show their front and reverse sides, the four compositions are a perfect metamorphosis of fabrics, leather and metal parts.
