He might be a barb or an arab-barb. At that time, everything from North-Africa was called “Arab”, because the people were collectively called Arabs.
There certainly is something Iberian about him. Lovely, all the same.
Arab-Barb and Barb are a distinct possibility! Wish that there were more information about the horse with the photo, but alas, the caption is as much as there is.
