Friesian

The Friesian Horse

HOOFDA Hand-Drawn Art

Born in the northern Netherlands, the Friesian horse is shaped by wind, water, and enduring tradition. The artwork reflects its homeland through rows of tulips, symbolizing the fertile fields of the north, and a windmill, standing quietly as a mark of balance and resilience.

Across the horse’s back runs the Frisian flag, worn as a banner of identity and pride. Tulips along the legs root each step in the land itself, while the armored chest shield, bearing the lions of Friesland, honors the Friesian’s legacy as a powerful and trusted war horse.
