Where in this wide world, other than in a horse, can man find nobility without pride, friendship without envy, or beauty without vanity? Here where grace is laced with muscle and strength by gentleness confined. He serves without servility; he has fought without enmity. There is nothing so powerful, nothing less violent; there is nothing so quick, nothing more patient. These words of Ronald Duncan’s echo my intention whenever I portray horses in a picture or figure.

Edition in bronze, cast using the lost wax technique, chased and patinated by hand.
