"Chevaux De Marly"
Ca. 1880 - France
Antique bronze statue, depicting a rearing horse with its companion.
Based on the colossal marble pair of the 'Horse Tamers' (Castor and Pollux) on the Capitoline Hill (Rome), the Marly Horses were commissioned in 1739 by Louis XV to the sculptor Guillaume Coustou to adorn the park of the Marly Castle. The originals are nowadays kept in the Louvre Museum.
This statue is made of finely cast bronze.
At the bottom the original antique square bolts.
The statue is in a great condition.
