A striking classical sculpture after a design by Giuseppe Ruggeri, depicting a dramatic horse-drawn chariot in full motion. Two spirited horses rear forward while a robed charioteer stands behind, creating a dynamic composition full of movement and energy. The sculpture is finished in an ivory-toned resin or composite material and mounted on a contrasting black base, giving it an elegant neoclassical appearance.
The piece captures the grandeur of ancient Roman and Greek art and makes an impressive decorative statement on a desk, bookshelf, mantelpiece or cabinet. The finely modelled horses, flowing manes and richly detailed chariot demonstrate the sculptural quality for which Ruggeri's designs are known. Its timeless classical aesthetic works particularly well with the continuing popularity of grand millennial, old money and neoclassical interiors.
Presented in very good vintage condition with only light age-related wear consistent with display use. Signed "G. Ruggeri" to the base.
Measures 11 inches wide x 7.5 inches high x 4.1 inches deep (28 x 19 x 10.5 cm).
