About the Item

This porcelain horse sculpture, created by the esteemed Japanese artist Saegusa Sotaro, exemplifies the graceful synthesis of traditional Japanese culture and abstract art elements. Born in 1911 in Kagawa Prefecture, Sotaro quickly gained recognition for his diverse artistic expressions and was honored with numerous awards at prestigious exhibitions. His sculptures, ranging from intricate small forms to monumental bronze statues, reflect a deep reverence for artistic beauty and innovation. After retiring as a professor at the Nagoya University of Arts, he continued to create impactful art, leaving a lasting legacy in both museums and public spaces. This piece remains in good condition, complete with its original signed wooden box, and stands as a testament to Sotaro’s lifelong dedication to the arts. SKU: NN9
