Mare and Foal Sculpture



'The horses are on the track'....and in the shop.  This heroic sculpture is cast in metal, handsomely detailed, and impressive in scale (and weight).  It depicts a mare and her foal and looks as beautiful from the back, when only the mare is visible, as the front.  While we couldn't find any artists markings, it does have some remnants of labels which appear to be very old and similar to some that we have seen on Italian pieces.  We believe it to be late 19th or early 20th century.  24" l., 20.5" h., 12" d.  $695.00
