Monumental 19th-Century French Bronze Horse Tamer After Guillaume Coustou

€ 2.450,00

19th-century patinated bronze after Guillaume Coustou’s celebrated Chevaux de Marly, originally created in 1743–1745 for the Château de Marly.

French, 19th century.
Height: 55 cm.

The original reins are missing.
