Man naast een paard before 1889

"Man naast een paard" (Man Beside a Horse) is a black and white photographic illustration from a book published before 1889, likely depicting a scene from the text about modern horsemanship. The illustration by Alexander Nicol shows a man, likely a trainer, standing beside a horse on a path. The horse is facing away from the viewer, and the man is reaching towards its head, possibly giving instructions or showing a technique.

The illustration likely served as a visual aid to readers, illustrating the text discussing the proper techniques of handling and guiding a horse during training.
