Horse Decor Bronze Sculpture Title of Bronze shown below: MAN ON THE TOWN Hackney ponies never fail to thrill the horse show audience with the precision and piston-like quickness of their extreme leg action at the trot . At the highest point of the animated trot there is an actual, brief suspension of motion before the leg is lowered. In fact the entire pony seems suspended in motion as the front hoof and rear pastern often touch the upper body of the pony while trotting. Although small, the hackney is mighty and his presence and utter fineness of body lines is that of royalty. The art of Patricia Crane includes museum quality bronzes of Hackney Ponies. Patricia's sculpture has long been well-known for its exactness of conformation as well as for capturing the personality and spirit of her portrait subjects. The qualities of a world class hackney lend themselves to portrayal in this sculptor's trademark work. Their elegance and the elegance with which she embodies her sculpture enhance each other nicely. The sculpture displayed below portrays a World Champion pony with great ability and personal charisma, capturing the feel of suspended motion ,combined with the animated power and supreme gracefulness of the very best of Hackney Ponies in the show ring.
