Edgar Degas: Horse at Trough

ENLARGE

Our sculpture is reproduced from a 1920 bronze cast created from an original wax modeled about 1860–68 by Edgar Degas (French, 1834–1917). Limiting his subject matter to women, especially dancers, and to horses, Degas sculpted many variations of each figure in different poses in order to explore the dynamics of movement. Horseracing was one of Degas’s lifetime interests, and he frequented the Longchamps racetrack to study thoroughbreds in action and in leisure in order to perfectly capture their grace and beauty in his art. The original Horse at Trough is now in the Museum's collection.

Bonded bronze, hand patinated. Length 8 1/2 in.; height 6 1/2 in.
