This magnificent bronze sculpture depicts a knight in oriental garb, astride a rearing horse, triumphantly raising a wind instrument (a trumpet or horn). The composition is extremely dynamic, capturing the energy and power of both horse and rider. The details are finely rendered, from the flowing robes to the horse's muscles, lending the work realism and expressive power. The gold patina enhances the three-dimensionality and shadows. Ideal as a centerpiece in a study, over a grand fireplace, or in an entryway, this sculpture makes a true artistic statement, evoking adventure and nobility.
