Amazon Taming a Horse

Jean-Jacques Feuchère

Cleveland Museum of Art

The bronze sculpture depicts a nude male figure taming a rearing horse. The man has medium-length hair and is positioned on the left side of the horse. His right leg is bent at the knee and rests on the horse's left flank, while his left leg is stretched out behind him. The man's right arm extends outward, palm down, and his left hand grasps the horse's bridle. The horse's front right leg and back left leg are raised, with its head turned to the right. The sculpture sits on a rectangular base with the artist's name inscribed on the front. The background is a gradient from dark gray at the top to light gray at the bottom. The title of the sculpture is "Amazon Taming a Horse" and it was created by Jean-Jacques Feuchère.
