Black Beauty
Cover art and illustrations for the 1877 novel by Anna Sewell.
This heartwaring story follows the life of the eponymous thoroughbred horse, Black Beauty — beginning with his carefree days as a colt on an English farm with his mother, to his difficult life pulling cabs in London, to his happy retirement in the country. While forthrightly teaching animal welfare, it also teaches how to treat people with kindness, sympathy, and respect.
