Life Size Cowboy Bronze Racing Horse Statue for Sale BOKK-222
Racing Horse Statue and meaning:
Speed horse racing has a long history. According to evidence, in the ancient Olympic Games held in ancient Greece in the 7th century BC there were four horses driving a competitive race, more than 40 years later, horse racing changed to be conducted by the rider driving. It began as a means of selecting good horses, and only those that performed well on the racecourse were used for breeding. The English Thoroughbreds that are active on racecourses around the world were bred from three Arabian stallions from the Arabian Peninsula. Unlike previous horse statues, this statue is so dazzling in size and design that it is impossible to take your eyes off it. It is a flamboyant presence and is perfect as a landmark statue of the city to attract visitors.
High-quality bronze:
The hardness of the bronze material we use. The bronze material we use is hard, corrosion-resistant, and long-lasting. It is easy to preserve and will not fall out of fashion over time. There are two common methods of making bronze statues, cast bronze statues and wrought bronze statues. Cast bronze statues have a strong artistic expression and their value increases as the raw material rises. Trevi has become very sophisticated in the development of the cast bronze process.
The casting process of Racing Horse Statue:
For large bronze horse statues, a clay mold is first made in a 1:1 ratio. After the clay mold is made, for complex shapes, we also embellish the mold with silicone. During the casting process, we use the traditional lost wax method, which is a precision casting method used for metal products such as bronze.

FAQs
What’s the material?
Material: The material of the statue is then decided by the client. The sculptor may also use a small clay model to better portray his conception of the design. The clay model can be modified to fine tune the client’s wishes.
Bronze Sculpture Statue
Mini-Sculpture: Finally, the bronze sculpture artist may finalize the miniature model of the final design in order to give the client a preview into how the final product will look. This model is made using the material decided, and it can be used by the client for marketing purposes so that he can raise funds for the sculpture.
Creating the Backbone: The backbone of the bronze statue, also called the armature consists of a steel frame with foam added to it in order to resemble the rough outline of the final product. This is then sealed with a latex coat to secure it.
The Sculpting: The main work starts only now. Many pounds of hot clay are used and applied by hand to “block in” the design for the first time. The bronze sculpture artist then invests a lot of time adding more clay, removing some clay and molding the clay until the final product finally resembles the required design. Tiny details are added on to give more preciseness to the bronze statue and make it more real.
How do I clean and maintain a bronze sculpture?
Remove dust with a damp cloth.
Do not use metal objects or wire brushes to clean the sculpture.
Do not apply abrasives or cleansers that will possibly scratch the finish.
ZUD – Non- Abrasive Cleaner. Use to remove stubborn stains. Zud cleans all metal surfaces including bronze. Zud can be used in powder or liquid form.
Lemon Oil – Apply a small amount of oil with a paintbrush or soft cloth. Cover the entire figure with oil. Wipe the surface gently with a soft cloth to take off the excess oil.
Paste Wax- A very thin, even coat of wax should be applied with a soft cloth. Allow the wax to sit and dry before polishing. Wax should be applied after bronze has been cleaned and dried. Do not apply if using lemon oil.
Do Nothing: Many bronze owners prefer to sit back and enjoy the natural reaction and aging process of their sculpture.

What’s the wax?
Ancient Sculpture Gallery is proud to present you with lost wax bronze reproductions of statues and busts from the Egyptian, Greek, Hellenistic, Roman, Asian Oriental, and Western civilizations. “Lost Wax” bronze (or hot-cast bronze) is actually 100% pure Bronze – essentially copper and tin. The making of a “lost wax” bronze is a complex and time consuming process, and specific technical expertise is needed to accomplish the task of making a bronze. The most known and used process for making “lost wax” involves pouring of molten bronze. This is the same method used by the ancient civilizations to create bronze sculptures. Our lost wax bronze sculptures are produced in this same technique.
