Peter Reynaers

A fine Bronze Age bronze stylised quadruped figurine, possibly a horse, featuring a thin body, long legs and a long tail which points outwards. The face displays an elongated skull, with rounded ears pointing upwards and  round eyes. The remnants of a suspension loop survive on the back of the figurine, suggesting amuletic use. Some stray pieces of bronze feature on the legs. Earthy encrustations and minor wear from age to the surface, such as scratches. 

Animals are a recurring motif in Bronze Age art and metalwork. The prevalence and intricacy of horse depictions, as well as horse equipment, in Bronze Age bronzes implies a great significance of the animal in the culture. The manufacturers of the these bronzes, though unknown, are widely understood to have been a nomadic people, and horses would have played a crucial role in almost every aspect of life, including transport, warfare, agriculture and religion.

Measurements: L 3.3cm x W 1.1cm x H 2.3cm

Provenance: Ex London Collection, formed between 1990-present.

Circa 1200-600 BC - Unknown
