Horse in love

The little horse that neighs under erotic stimuli made of beeswax by Ligabue is unique in this material. It belonged to the Mossina di Guastalla family until the 1980s and was kept in the building that was the ducal palace of the Gonzagas. Of the organic material it has maintained the brightness of the molded and the luministic pleasure that defines its essential forms, but also accurate in underlining the physiological characteristics. The pointing of the hind legs with a slight spread to signal them open and the squat and massive neck stretched forward in the neighing of love are very effective on a narrative level.
