The Tarpan is the original wild horse as depicted in the cave paintings of Lascaux. It is an ancestor of the Konick horses that now graze fenland reserves to maintain indigenous plants and wildlife.
The story depicted on the Tarpan’s body narrates his journey from prehistory to today, together with his fellow flora and fauna. It underlines his importance to man as a means of survival then, and continued use now.
