Sculptor - Madeleine Park
Title - Hackney Horse
Sand Cast Bronze
Gorham
Circa 1935
5 1/2" height by 6 1/2" length
(14 cm by 16.5 cm)
Madeleine Park sculpted quite a few dogs and horses during her career. Many of those were commissioned portraits of treasured pets. This fine small bronze of a Hackney Horse in full gait was most likely one of her
commissions but it does not have the horse's name on the base. It is also
unusual because it is a mare, most bronzes of horses are stallions. This
proud Hackney mare has a rich green patina and is cast by the Gorham Foundry and stamped "Gorham Co Founders QJAF".
