[Lattice of Words] Saumur, France, 1901: A Historical Moment at the Cavalry School [Left Direction] In the heart of France's Loire Valley, the historic town of Saumur is renowned for its rich equestrian heritage. Home to the prestigious Cadre Noir, the National School of Horsemanship (Ecole Nationale d'Equitation), Saumur has been the cradle of horse training excellence since 1853. [Right Direction] The Cadre Noir, meaning "black squadron," is a unique institution where the art of horsemanship is passed down from generation to generation. This photo captures an unusual moment in the daily life of the school, with riders and their horses in the midst of an intricate jumping training session. [Left Direction] The annual horse shows held in Saumur are a testament to the school's commitment to preserving and showcasing the highest level of equestrian skills. The Armoured Branch and Cavalry Training School are also part of this prestigious institution, ensuring the continuation of the French cavalry tradition. [Right Direction] The lattice of words weaving around this photographic moment in time transports us back to a historical era when calligraphy and equestrian arts were intertwined. The written text, running in two directions, mirrors the precision and harmony between rider and horse, a bond that has been forged in Saumur for over a century. [Left Direction] As we gaze upon this image, we are reminded of the unique blend of history, tradition, and artistry that sets Saumur apart. The jumping jumps, the valley in the background, and the unusual lattice effect of the written message all come together to create a captivating tableau of a bygone era. [Right Direction] So, let us take a moment to appreciate this snapshot of history, as the riders and their horses continue their training in the time-honored traditions of the Cadre Noir. This photograph, much like the lattice of words, is a testament to the enduring legacy of Saumur's equestrian heritage.
