The artistic mastery of communities across Asia, as expressed in the way they costumed their horses, is on parade in The George Washington University Museum and The Textile Museum's exhibition Adorning the Horse: Equestrian Textiles for Power and Prestige in Washington, DC, through June 20. A selection of sixty spectacular saddle covers, horse blankets, and other trappings made over the last 1,300 years showcase horses as precious possessions that communicated both the wealth of their riders and the artistic taste of their respective cultures.
