Description
The Frisian is a breed of saddle and draft horse from Friesland, province of the Netherlands ... hence its name! It always wears a black dress, and is for this reason nicknamed 'the black pearl'. This very old prestige horse has a turbulent history: alternately a war mount then a trotting race horse, it is threatened of disappearing at the end of the 19th century because it was neglected for the heavy draft horse.
