The horse stops behind the shoulder, and the clear resin sits on a tall black marble block that comes with it and raises the gesture well above the floor.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eThe Forepart of a Horse Above Black Marble\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe horse is cut off behind the shoulder along the line of the muscle, so the ending looks chosen rather than broken. That end face is worked rather than polished bright, which keeps attention at the head. Along the crest each strand of mane is freed from its neighbours and finished on both sides. Below, the marble block is deep and unornamented, a dark weight that lets the clear horse above it read as pure light. No two castings take the light in quite the same way.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAt 150cm it stands on the floor, best seen side on so the bowed neck and the lifted leg make a single movement: set it along a wall in a hall or across a long room rather than in a corner. With daylight behind it the clear body fills with light over the dark marble. Leave space in front of the lowered head, which is where the movement goes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eThe Ending, the Marble and Lifting It In\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003ePlan for 3–4 weeks on a standard piece and 5–6 weeks on a bespoke commission. The ending can be moved back towards the full horse, and the marble block can be white, grey or black, its depth set at order. The resin can be tinted amber, smoke or green, or frosted instead of polished. Horse and block share one fitted crate and go together on site; two people lift the horse with their hands under its chest, never at the head. Our main studios are in the UK (Birmingham) and Dubai, with additional global workshops.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA horse's forepart raised on a marble block belongs with our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/horse-sculptures\"\u003ehorse sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e; a bowed neck over a lifted foreleg leads to our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/animal-sculptures\"\u003eanimal sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e, and clear resin above dark stone joins our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/resin-sculptures\"\u003eresin sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003ctable class=\"spec_table\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e120cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e89cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDepth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e34.8cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBase\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e70 x 45 x 30cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHigh-Clarity Cast Resin on a Black Marble Base\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Giant Sculptures","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54260157579611,"sku":"R141-2","price":10126.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0869\/3383\/2027\/files\/R141__2.jpg?v=1791309121","url":"https:\/\/giant-sculptures.com\/products\/clear-horse-forequarters-on-a-black-marble-base-resin-sculpture-150cm","provider":"Giant Sculptures","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
