Susan Crawford Limited Edition Giclee : " Omani Boy on his Arab Stallion "Item #: GL001Title: Omani Boy on his Arab Stallion Edition Size: 95 Medium: Giclee Image Size: 27" x 34" About the Art: This remarkable work was painted for HM Sultan Qaboos bin Said of Oman to commemorate the 25th anniversary of his accession in July 1970. Every year, the Sultan completes a tour of his country with his entourage and the painting records His Majesty's visit to a small village in central Oman, near to where he himself had been born. Thousands of local inhabitants flocked to the Sultan's camp to pay their respects. Most arrived on horseback, dressed in their finest clothes and with their horses beautifully bedecked in silver bridles, which are handed down from generation to generation as family heirlooms. Susan Crawford has chosen to portray the arrival of one local boy, mounted on his superb Desert-bred Arab, in this dramatic tribute. |
