Description
Group of Three Wild Horses. Spanish School. 20th century
Glazed porcelain. Dimensions 35 x 40 cm.
A sculptural group in porcelain by the renowned Spanish firm Algora, depicting three wild horses in dynamic poses on a naturalistic base. The figures form a highly expressive narrative ensemble, with each horse captured in a distinct pose: one galloping with its neck arched, another rearing defiantly, and the third leaping with its mane flowing. The movement is masterfully conveyed through fluid modelling, tense gestures, and meticulous attention to equine anatomy. The base features rocky terrain with exposed roots and applied vegetation, adding scenic depth to the composition. The glazing technique offers a lustrous finish that enhances the chromatic richness of the coats, painted in natural tones with precise contrasts. This piece, produced by the esteemed Algora workshop—which remained active until its closure in 2004—exemplifies the technical and aesthetic excellence that defines its legacy and reflects the spirit of 20th-century figurative collecting in Spain. Its visual impact and artistic quality make it a valuable work within the European decorative tradition.
