Press release

"Christa Walhof's paintings have been described as the best painting of horses since Stubbs, although I thought his horses were an odd shape. But there you go. They say that she is the best and I'm not surprised. I could have sworn they were photographs but no, these enormous animal pictures have been painted with a reality that is positively deceptive and with a brilliance that any horse lover would drool over - were they tall enough!" (Dellirious, GB. Exhibition 2011 in London)
