Description

Immerse yourself in the silent majesty of our Horse sculpture, a piece that captures the natural elegance and discreet power of the animal. The pose is static yet incredibly vivid, with its head slightly lowered, lending the figure an expression of deep serenity and measured calm. The modeling is fluid and smooth, defined with artisanal precision: from the stylized, undulating mane to the voluminous tail.

This variant features a light-toned finish, where the beige-cream body (reminiscent of desired "white horses") is enhanced by the vibrant contrast of a dark brown mane, tail, and hooves, a color choice that highlights the purity of its form and the definition of its contours.

Dolfi Artisan Quality: Each statue is a masterpiece of South Tyrolean tradition. The sculptures, available in a range of sizes from 6 cm to 15 cm, are made entirely from Maple Wood, the preferred material for our small-sized works. Maple, with its fine grain and stability, is essential for the meticulous handcrafting typical of Val Gardena. Choose between the colored version (C) which you admire here, the natural finish (N), or the three shades of brown (3G) to integrate the essence of nature into your collection.

Detail & Meaning
Il cavallo è, fin dall'antichità, un simbolo universale di potenza, libertà indomita e nobiltà d'animo. Nella sua colorazione chiara, che evoca l'immagine del destriero "bianco" o "alato", il simbolismo si arricchisce di purezza, luce e trionfo spirituale. La posa eretta e calma di questa scultura non comunica aggressività o movimento sfrenato, ma piuttosto una forza interiore e misurata. Rappresenta la padronanza di sé, l'eleganza regale e la capacità di elevarsi al di sopra della materia, un richiamo alla maestà e all'onore.
Story
L'arte dell'intaglio del legno in Val Gardena, la cui fama mondiale è stata costruita a partire dal XVII secolo, è celebre primariamente per le sue opere di arte sacra. Tuttavia, la maestria degli artigiani locali ha da sempre spaziato anche nella creazione di figure profane e, in particolare, di soggetti animali. I cavalli, essenziali nella vita rurale alpina e spesso presenti nelle tradizioni popolari, sono diventati soggetti classici per testare l'abilità nella scultura, richiedendo una particolare attenzione nel catturare l'anatomia e la postura. Questa scultura si inserisce nella tradizione Dolfi di onorare non solo la spiritualità, ma anche la natura e il patrimonio culturale della montagna.
