Description

Tokyo 2020. Karim Laghouag and Triton Fontaine, eventing, show jumping © Franck Faugère/L'Équipe 2 August 2021. The horse, Triton Fontaine, is an 11-year-old gelding. The rider, Karim Laghouag, 46, was Olympic champion with the French eventing team in 2016. They should not have come to Tokyo but a succession of withdrawals led to the duo having to ensure on this muggy evening the 3rd place of the Blues in the eventing after a failed dressage test but a successful cross country. Triton Fontaine and Karim Laghouag dropped a bar but the French team (with Nicolas Touzaint on Absolut Gold and Christopher Six on Totem de Brecey), won a bronze medal "worth its weight in gold". Single posterior print. Edition 1/1. Printed on Hahnemühle FineArt Baryta Satin 300g paper. Flamant art frame. 53 x 80 cm
