Unknown Artist - The Fury

The depiction of animals in art has ancient origins, even appearing in primitive cave paintings. For religious reasons, various types of animals appear in the works of various ancient civilizations. It was especially in the Middle Ages, within the International Gothic style, that animal depictions became widespread as true life portraits, both within works of art and in notebooks of drawings and sketches. The presence of animals as subjects in art remained constant until the contemporary era. A noble animal, a symbol of beauty and harmony, the horse has repeatedly been a prominent subject in the history of art. Since the fourteenth century, its presence has always been obligatory in battle scenes or equestrian monuments, and artists have always found it a challenge to represent it with anatomical precision and naturalistic rendering.

The representation of this pair of horses in bas-relief is executed very faithfully to the subject, with meticulous attention to detail and exceptional sculptural skill. The surfaces of the two horses are enhanced by a dynamic rhythm and a creative process that lends complexity to the figure, imbuing it with energetic vibrations. The space surrounding the pair of prancing horses, in fact, is expressed through a complex array of swirling lines.

The artist who created this bas-relief demonstrates remarkable sculptural skill, creating a work that, while respecting the naturalistic rendering of the subject, presents a highly expressive composition.
