The Allure of Horses, a new book by photographer Uli Weber, published by Assouline, examines the close relationship between horses and humans.

It features animal portraits and sporting images taken of quintessentially British equine communities at various manor houses and estates around the UK, from the steeplechase to the Changing of the Guard to the polo field.

Weber is known for his portraiture and has photographed a number of celebrities, including Eddie Redmayne, Rachel Weisz, Jeremy Irons and Placido Domingo.

The book is the sequel to Uli's best-selling second book Goodwood Revival. It's born out of a collaboration with Tatler, whose former editor in chief Kate Reardon has written a foreword.
