Lipizzaners

White dressage breed

Lipizzaners are a breed of horse developed in the 16th century, known for their compact muscular build and distinctive gray-white coat.

They are famous for classical dressage, particularly the "airs above the ground"—dramatic leaping movements performed at Vienna's Spanish Riding School.

The Lipizzaners executed a perfect capriole.
