Etruscan horse

We can not guess the nationality of the designer of this sculpture as it seems far from the mediterranean style evoked by it and yet frederick weinberg artist, prolix designer in the second half of the twentieth century is indeed american, as his name does not suggest at all. To blur the tracks, he made magnificent figures evoking the antiquity of the old continent, sometimes he was inspired by the romans, sometimes by the greeks, here by the etruscans. He then reinterpreted with great elegance the etruscan statuary that inspired giacometti by the purity and stylization of his forms as well as by the singular technique of metalwork. Note, here too, the care given to the ornamentation of the animal, its whole body being adorned with incised geometric designs as well as the beautiful patina green of gray. In short, it is a beautiful decorative piece that we offer, full of presence... Lovers of antiquity, beautiful objects or horses, you now know what to love! The object has a beautiful patina consistent with its age. Height 26 cm. Depth 18 cm. Width 5.5 cm.
