An equine sculpture of great grace and serenity that enriches any nativity scene. The horse is depicted in a static and noble pose, seen in profile, with its coat illuminated by a warm pinkish beige that evokes a light bay or palomino coat. The accurately defined musculature on the shoulders and thighs attests to the realism and volume of the figure.
The flowing mane and dark tail, sculpted in wavy strands that fall with natural movement, elegantly contrast with the smooth, matte finish of the body. Every detail, from the sculpted nostrils to the dark hooves, is carefully crafted to infuse life and dignity into the figure, maintaining a neutral and contemplative expression.
This statue is entirely made of maple wood, the preferred material for small and medium-sized Dolfi sculptures (under 56 cm). It is available in the hand-painted version, where the pinkish shades enhance the three-dimensionality, or in the natural version, which celebrates the pure essence and texture of the wood. This artwork represents the excellence of Val Gardena craftsmanship, a piece that carries the legacy of master sculptors.
