So President Macron (whose Chinese name is apparently 马克龙, pronounced Mǎkèl´ong, meaning "Horse conquers dragon) has given Xi Jinping an 8-yr old gelding named Vesuvius.I'm intrigued by the tack on this horse...Image: http://languagelog.ldc.upenn.edu/~bgzimmer/vesuvius.jpg I can see the double bridle, What looks like a Pelham bit and curb chain. But is this horse wearing both a bridle and a head collar? It looks like it could be... with the white lead rope attached to the large rind under the chin, looped around his neck.It looks like the French cavalry's "Licol de parade" ("licol" is French for head collar), at the link below is a picture of the model used around the time of the Great War.http://imagesia.com/fh6l3ngpxi_jlh
