Celebrating Uffington Castle and the White Horse

There is something eternal about art. For those who like their art old and beautiful, I offer the Uffington horse.

For the history geeks, like myself, the ultimate horse is the Uffington horse. This design clearly states this truth together with the timeless curves of the Uffington impression of horsiness.

Uffington white horse. Aerial photograph of a hill carving of a white horse. The Uffington carving is the oldest chalk-cut hillfigure in Britain. The horse has been dated by means of optical stimulated luminescence dating (OSL) which shows how long soil has been hidden from sunlight. OSL testing of the soil layers beneath the chalk infilling indicates that it has been buried since between 1400BC and 600BC, and most likely between 1200BC and 800BC. This dates the horse as from the Bronze Age. Photographed near Wantage, Oxfordshire.
