Since 1788, when seven horses arrived with the First Fleet, the horse and its rider has been a powerful symbol galloping across the Australian landscape. This work aims to explore the myth of the stockworker, the boundary rider, the bushranger and sportsperson among other heroic horseback figures through 19th century Australian literature and art.
