This is a Jules Moigniez bronze horse statue. Moigniez was a well known French sculptor who lived in the 19th century (1835-1894). He exhibited many of his works at the Paris Salon during his lifetime. Although he is best known for his bird sculptures, he developed his technique to include a refined skill for sculpting other animals. In this piece, a beautiful racehorse is seen with his head held high. The bronze shows incredible detail and great condition. It does shows the artist's signature. The bronze is on a solid marble base with a brass plaque that reads "J. Moigniez".
