L’Istituto Italiano di Cultura di Montréal e il Dipartimento di Scienze Veterinarie dell’Università degli Studi di Torino sono lieti di presentare la serie di webinar intitolata “E l’uomo incontrò il cavallo”. Il cavallo ha seguito la vita degli uomini e delle civiltà, sin dagli albori. Originario della steppa eurasiatica, all’inizio ha fornito all’uomo carne, latte e pelli e solo nell’età dei metalli è divenuto protagonista fra gli animali da tiro e principe per l’equitazione, segnando momenti memorabili nella storia militare e sportiva. La sua parte nella letteratura e nell’arte è sempre stata centrale, quella del nobile animale, rispecchiando interessi e passioni dei popoli. Le arti figurative hanno in ogni epoca rappresentato la sua bellezza: dalle figure equine lasciate dai primitivi sulle pareti delle grotte preistoriche sino ai cavalli dei mirabili monumenti equestri del Rinascimento italiano.
