Cast and Patinated Bronze Sculpture of a Horse on Pedestal, H-29 1/4, 20th C.

About the Item

Cast in the 1900s, this bronze sculpture of a horse on a pedestal has a lovely patination that accentuates the standing stallion. Clad with a bridle and bit, but no other dressing, the majestic horse has a long, flowing mane that lays flat as he peers into the distance. The detailed pedestal beneath features several motifs, such as crenellation beneath the beveled edge of the entablature, egg-and-dart, and Vitruvian waves with roundels on the thick plinth. On both sides of the main body of the pedestal is a recessed rectangle with an angled shell in each corner, surrounding a large, twisted rope loop. At over 29 inches tall, the sculpture has a commanding presence, allowing it to be displayed on a variety of tables, fireplace mantel, or wall shelf.

  • Weathered Cast Stone Pig and Piglets from England, 20th C.
    Located in Dallas, TX
    Cast in England in the 1900s using reconstituted stone, this charming pig and four piglets statue has developed a lovely weathered patina from exposure to the elements. Reconstituted stone is organic stone that has been crushed into small bits (if you look closely, you can still see pebble inclusions within the casting). These fragments are then combined with cement and sometimes coloring pigments are added to the mix. The resulting aggregate is poured into a mold where it is left to harden. After the blend has set, the mold is removed, rendering a durable work of art. Our weathered cast stone pig...

  • 19th Century French Patinated Bronze Bust of a Soldier
    By Paul Dubois
    Located in Dallas, TX
    Cast in France during the 1800s, this patinated bronze bust depicts a woman soldier, based on the style of hair and the ceremonial accoutrement on the armor cuirass. Our stoic soldier has a four-petal flower adorning the breastplate (to the viewer’s left of the artist’s signature-Dubois). On each side of the flower is a dangling strap for the helmet that protects the heroine. At the top of the helmet is a mythical creature, resembling a dragon with a long three-prong tail, with the outer two tendrils curling along the sides of the helmet. A thick bun protrudes from the back of the open cabasset-style helmet. The style of the helmet is reminiscent of the 19th century Paul Dubois bronze...
