Venice Film Festival
Where cinema meets the horses of the Lido
Outside the Palazzo del Cinema, a horse and rider cross the red carpet at the 82nd Venice International Film Festival. It is one image of the connection between the Lido, its horses and the world of cinema.
From the photographic archive
Denzel Washington, two portraits with a horse
Two photographs of Denzel Washington beside a horse: the warm light of the colour portrait and, in the black-and-white image, the words “The Magnificent Seven” on the horse's tack. Two different frames of an encounter between film and equestrian life.
