Reeves affirmed
“Affirmed always meant something very special to me. His owners, Louis and Patrice Wolfson, are old friends and clients of whom I was always very fond. When Affirmed matured into a stallion in Kentucky, he developed into one of the most attractive stallions I have painted. His neck arched and became a little fuller. His body proportions were a little heavier and more picturesque than as a racehorse, and his disposition was always one of the kindest that I have known. When Affirmed was at Calumet Farm, I had the pleasure of going out to his paddock and being able to visit and pet him, and he acted like an old friend.”
