Giant Sculptures Monumental Classical Galloping Horse and Swallow Bronze Sculpture in aged verdigris finish, mid-gallop with one hoof on a swallow, side view.
Monumental Classical Galloping Horse and Swallow Bronze Sculpture - 500cm $232,69900
Description

The Monumental Classical Galloping Horse and Swallow Bronze Sculpture stands at an extraordinary 500cm, presenting one of history's most celebrated equine compositions at a scale that commands entire courtyards, grand entrance halls, and civic spaces. The horse is caught in full gallop, three legs lifted and one hoof balanced delicately on a small swallow figure beneath, the entire composition suspended in a moment of impossible, exhilarating motion.

Cast Bronze, Hand-Finished with Aged Verdigris Patina

This piece is cast using the traditional lost-wax process, a method that preserves every carved detail from the open mouth and visible teeth to the flowing mane swept back by forward momentum and the dynamically positioned tail. The aged green verdigris patina has been applied and hand-worked across the entire surface, replicating the character of centuries-old outdoor bronze. The result is a finish that reads as authentically weathered, carrying the visual weight appropriate to a sculpture of this scale. The swallow underfoot, the integral sculptural base element of this composition, is rendered with the same precision as the horse above it, its delicate form a deliberate contrast to the mass it appears to support.

At 500cm in height and 10,000kg, this is a monumental bronze sculpture suited to large-scale architectural settings: civic plazas, hotel and resort forecourts, corporate headquarters, estate entrance courts, and museum atria. The verdigris finish works equally well against stone, water, and mature planting. The sculpture suits both covered indoor spaces with sufficient ceiling height and fully exposed outdoor environments, where the bronze will continue to develop naturally over time.

Handmade to Order, Fully Customisable

We offer a full range of patina options beyond the standard verdigris finish, including warm natural bronze, dark brown, and blackened finishes. Scale variants are available: contact us before ordering to discuss dimensional requirements, plinth and base specifications, or any commission brief inspired by the work of Han dynasty bronze craftsmen whose original "Horse Treading on a Swallow" remains one of the defining equine sculptures in world art history. Our team will advise on installation, structural requirements, and site preparation for pieces of this category.

  • Bespoke commissions (custom sizes, finishes, or fully custom designs): approximately 5–6 weeks from design sign-off.

Production time is separate from delivery time.

Delivery to Your Address

Delivery is to the door or curbside at your shipping address.

For larger sculptures shipped by sea freight, the carrier will contact you in advance to arrange a delivery window. Please ensure someone is available to accept the delivery and that the property has suitable access for the size of the piece.

Once the sculpture arrives, you are responsible for positioning it in its final display location. For larger or heavier pieces, we recommend arranging two people (family, friends, or a local moving service) to help with placement.

International Orders & Customs

For orders shipping outside the United Kingdom, any customs duties, import taxes, or local fees at your destination country are the responsibility of the customer. These charges are set by your local authority and are not included in our shipping cost.

If you have questions about customs for your specific country, contact us before ordering and we can advise on typical charges for your region.

To start a return, contact us within 30 days of receipt. Return shipping for change-of-mind returns is at the customer's cost.

Bespoke and custom-commissioned pieces are non-refundable once production has started, as they are made specifically to your specification.

  1. Report the damage within 48 hours of delivery.
  2. Provide clear photographs of both the damage and the packaging.
  3. We arrange collection and either replacement or full refund at no cost to you.

Lifetime Guarantee

Every sculpture carries a lifetime guarantee against finish defects under normal display conditions, subject to our Terms & Conditions.

This covers manufacturing defects, premature finish degradation, and structural failures under normal display. It does not cover damage caused by accidents, misuse, inappropriate environments (for example, an indoor-only sculpture placed outdoors), or modifications made after delivery.
