Another question on Black Beauty...What breed is he?
I don't think Anna Sewell mentioned the breed in the book. However, he was played by a quarter horse in the movie. Some claim he was Arabian.
Thank you...He looks like an Arabian so I'll write Arabian...Unless Thoroughbred is a breed? Is It?
Thoroughbred is not a breed. It just means that his parents and ancestors were all of the same breed.
OK so it would mean that they were all Arabian, correct?
Right.
To determine the breed of Black Beauty, we can refer to the original novel "Black Beauty" written by Anna Sewell. In the book, the specific breed of Black Beauty is not explicitly mentioned. However, based on the physical description and characteristics, Black Beauty is commonly assumed to be a black horse of English Thoroughbred or an English Thoroughbred crossbreed.
To confirm this, you can look for additional sources such as illustrations from the novel, adaptations in various media, or statements from the author or literary analysts. These sources may provide more accurate information regarding the breed of Black Beauty, as different adaptations may interpret the character differently.
Please note that the exact breed of fictional characters can sometimes be subjective or open to interpretation, as authors may not always provide specific details.
