Description
Expressive Mid-Century Italian Bronze Horse Head c.1950 in the style of Romanelli, Florentine Equestrian Mastery A powerful and emotionally resonant Italian bronze horse head sculpture, cast circa 1950 in the dramatic style of Raffaello Romanelli (1856–1928) and the esteemed Romanelli Studio of Florence. Standing an impressive 41.5 cm tall and weighing 9 kg, this mid-century equine work embodies the expressive romanticism, muscular dynamism, and refined anatomical precision that define the Florentine bronze tradition. Sculptural Presence – Motion, Emotion & Form Capturing a moment of heightened tension, the horse is portrayed in alert reaction, its neck arched in a striking S-curve, the mane bursting into expressive, flame-like curls. Anatomical tension visible in flared nostrils, open mouth, and taut jawline. Muscular definition with raised cheekbones reinforcing stylized strength. A posture that powerfully evokes vitality, resistance, and emotional intensity Patination & Surface Expression:- Finished in a deep chocolate umber patina, with subtly worn highlights revealing warm golden bronze tones across raised areas such as the brow, muzzle, and mane. Under directional lighting, this contrast produces a dynamic and animated presence. Smooth neck and muzzle surfaces echo a groomed sheen Textured, wind-swept mane enhances dramatic movement and emotional urgency. The Romanelli Legacy – Florentine Equestrian Tradition Raffaello Romanelli, famed for his equestrian studies and expressive bronze works, established a sculptural lineage that continued into the post-war era. This piece strongly aligns with mid-century Romanelli studio characteristics: Expressive musculature Romantic dramatic tension Sweeping mane stylization Traditional Florentine patina Attribution: In the style of Raffaello Romanelli and the Romanelli Studio, Florence, circa 1950.
