‘Although they [horses] have given me much trouble and many sleepless nights, they have been my supporters, friends – my destiny in fact. Looking back at my life, interwoven with theirs – painting them, feeding them, riding them, thinking about them – I hope that I have learned something of their ways.’
Stanley Booth, Sir Alfred Munnings 1878-1959, 1978, p.16
