The Black and white composition depicts a horse's eye in a contemplating moment. The high-key photographic technique isolates the subject, as in a dreamy, sunny scene, from its surroundings. The horse's graceful allure inspired the title Grand Dame. At the same time, its constantly moving body invited the artist to chase her eye for another frame, leading to two images that can be exhibited together or individually. The Grand Dame's eye detail invites viewers to chase its gaze and connect with its stunning presence.

Anna Archinger

Anna Archinger (b. 1994, Neuburg an der Donau) is a self-taught German artist based in Dronningmølle, Denmark. Anna has worked as a professional photographer since 2022. Her art practice focuses on horse photography as her fascination with horses goes beyond a mere passion. She lives at the farm Enggaarden, an education center specialized in teaching the “Academic Art of Riding”, where her connection to horses recalls seminal artists’ fascination with horse study. Within the last three years, Anna has been elaborating a stunning body of equine artwork, some of which was distinguished with the Honorable Mention in the Professional category by International Photo Awards USA (2023) and was shortlisted in a private competition run by the Motif Collective Photography Gallery, (2023). Anna’s work is also scheduled to be presented to the public throughout 2024 in venues such as The Glasgow Gallery of Photography (Glasgow, United Kingdom), the Black and White Photography Festival (Athens), and the Chateau Gallery (Louisville).
