Chinese Horse III (Standing)

Dame Elisabeth Frink's "Chinese Horse III (Standing)" exemplifies her distinctive approach to equine sculpture, capturing the animal's powerful musculature and commanding presence through bold, expressionistic modeling. Created in bronze, this work reflects Frink's characteristic style of emphasizing form and movement over anatomical detail, with vigorous surface textures that convey energy and vitality. The sculpture demonstrates her deep fascination with horses as subjects of both physical strength and spiritual significance, a theme she explored extensively throughout her career.
