"Black Sterling " - By Kristen Wesch

Black Sterling was destined to be star from his early days in the Netherlands . He was bred for elegance in Holland. A long line of predecessors date back to at least the thirteenth century with some Arabian blood introduced through the Spanish Andalusian in the 16th & 17th centuries. Through the centuries the Friesian Government has made many regulations in order to safeguard good breeding. During the last two centuries it has been bred pure.

Black Sterling was the first in a long line of Friesians that the Goldman's acquired from Holland, and also the namesake of their premier show facility in Northern California, Black Sterling Friesians.

This portrait is an elegant depiction of the nobility and strength of the Friesianstallion, Black Sterling.
