Stock No.14384
A pair of Baroque style polished brass models of the Marley Horses after Guillaume Coustou the Elder (1677-1746).
English, early 20th century.
Notes: The original pair were carved in Carrara Marble and were over three meters high and were commissioned in 1739 for the park of the Chateau De Marly. They were moved in 1795 to the Place de la Concord in Paris where they remained for two centuries but were moved again in 1985 to the Marly Sculpture Courtyard at the Louvre Museum and a concrete pair replaced them in the Place de la Concord.
