Horseshoe Anatomy Diagram - Parts, Function & Historical Design #2065989 (License: Personal Use)

This black-and-white technical sketch illustrates a classic horseshoe design, emphasizing structural features such as the toe-mounted clasp (labeled 'a') for fastening and the heel calks (labeled 'b') for grip. The inner and outer branches show evenly spaced nail holes, typical of hand-forged or early manufactured shoes used in equine hoof protection. The dashed line between the heels suggests a measurement or alignment reference used in fitting.

Used in veterinary, farrier training, historical equestrian equipment articles, or museum exhibits to explain horseshoe construction and function; matches user intent for educational diagrams, antique tool identification, or equine anatomy resources.
