Reviews

"Horses(Rizzoli) appear...inDerry Mooresphotographs."
Sloane Crosleys Favorite Fall 2016 Books, Vanity Fair

"Moores workwith a unique eye for character, not just in his portraits of the horses but in the details of their surroundingsis a beautiful tribute to horses, their riders, stables, and the equestrian lifestyle around the world."
Art of the Times

"Rizzolis recently released Horses: Portraits by Derry Moore is a handsome volume full of sensitive photographs of its titular subjects. The London-based Moore, who is the 12th Earl of Drogheda, had never trained his eye on horses before hes best known for posh interiors and portraits of the even posher humans who inhabit them but the topic was suggested by an editor as a natural extension of his mtier. The project took him to Louisiana, Kentucky, Spain, India and all across his native England."
