A Italian equestrian specimen marble carved study of a wild stallion and mare
About the Item
This remarkable horse sculpture depicts a head and shoulders study of a wild stallion and mare carved meticulously from figured and veined natural marble stone with colours ranging from terracotta, pale pink, orange, cream and brown. The artist has cleverly used the naturally formed crystals from within the stone to produce the windswept manes of these two handsome horses. The carving shows great skill with fine detailing to the mouth, muscular and veined faces with well defined ears and bright black eyes inlaid with a different marble which matches the stone used in the double stepped and moulded oval plinth.
This interesting and rare sculpture bears the artist's initials carved into the reverse side C.A.
