The horse head was uncovered as part of excavations of a Roman settlement called Waldgirmes, near modern-day Frankfurt, and it adds a dramatic new wrinkle to the story of Rome and the Germans.
Get one that is mounted on a pedestal, especially if you want to keep the piece of art safe from overeager kids or pets. From details like pricked ears to forelocks swept aside by the wind, these horse sculptures are the next best thing to actually inviting a live horse into the living room.

I received the Horse Metal Wall Art Decor – Modern Fire Stallion Abstract Decorative Sculpture, Set of 3 Panels for free or at a discount in exchange for an honest review. I was not compensated, and the opinions are my own.
By the mid-fifteenth century, metal plates and leather were the dominant materials for all elements of horse armor, and a “full bard” now comprised a shaffron, closed neck defense (crinet), chest defense (peytral), panels for the sides (flanchards), and a rump defense (crupper).
Modern equestrians frown at this bad genetic practice because millennia of inbreeding have left horses with segments called detrimental DNA. In 2016, horse remains were taken from Scythian graves and sites where hundreds of the animals were ritually buried thousands of years ago.
By contrast, all of these issues pose no threat to steel building components. This is why manufacturers don’t hesitate to provide generous warranties on pre-engineered metal horse barns of up-to 40 years.
An artist might choose to feature the horse’s body in motion, a rider astride their mount, or even, create simply a horse head sculpture. Some of the most famous horse sculptures have been created by Edgar Degas; most of his darkly colored horse sculptures, such as “Standing Horse,” possess a rich patina.
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.
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.
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.

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.
