The ground behind is stippled all over, and a shallow ledge projects along the bottom of the square panel.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eHorse Wall Art on a Stippled Ground\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eStippling the ground is a deliberate old device: the pitted surface holds shadow evenly, so the smooth polished figures in front of it lift away without needing to be cut any deeper. The stone is a warm cream, worked matte, and the ledge is carved from the same piece.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA rider panel suits a stable block, a tack room, a country hallway, a study or a sheltered courtyard. The shallow ledge means it can stand on a shelf rather than hang, which is useful in a room where nothing should go into the plaster, and it reads well at standing eye level.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eA Shallow Ledge Along the Bottom Edge\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eSix weeks. The ground is pecked after the figures are finished, so a slip falls on the field rather than on a polished flank. It is the last operation and the one most often underestimated: the field covers most of the panel, not just the figures on it. The square is yours, and the ground can be worked finer or left smooth. Our main studios are in the UK (Birmingham) and Dubai, with additional global workshops.
