Among the highlights of Plymouth Auction Rooms’ sale on May 9 is this near life-size bronze horse sculpture by contemporary Irish artist Rick Lewis.
The 4ft 6in x 2ft 6in (1.37m x 76cm) high sculpture was commissioned by the vendor’s late father, a close friend of the artist, whose dream had been to own a sculpture of a horse in full gallop, with protruding veins, eyes and flat back ears.
