Artwork description:

The work depicts the figure of a horse standing on his hind legs. The horse’s neck is twisted forward emanating power and grandeur and his mane is streaming behind him capturing the dashing movement of the male animal. The sculpture oozes defiance and elan without undue exaggeration of the movement. The surface is polished to shine. The work was created in the Neoclassical style and the dark patina emphasizes the strong and at the same time agile body of the stallion, combining graciousness and masculinity.
Krasimir Krustev’s works require within 4 to 8 weeks to make. Every piece of his fine sculptures goes through several stages of creation – modelling, casting in metal and refining. A distinguishing feature of a great part of his hand made sculptures is their jewelry like quality, and every single one of them is created with great care to detail. The sculptor does not compromise with the quality of his work, and many of his creations are in the collections of art lovers around the world.
