Equestrian art in Portugal is characterized by the rider’s position on the saddle, as well as by the traditional attire and harnesses used. It is based on a sense of harmony and deep connection between rider and horse, with respect to the animal and its well-being. The practice requires a horse that is flexible and manageable, such as the purebred Lusitano. A source of collective identity, the practice is featured in pilgrimages, annual fairs and other social events.
