"The Bronze Horse" and "The Horse-Park-Horse" were fond names the pubic gave this sculpture on the day the life size portrait of a multi-titled American Saddlebred champion, The Phoenix, was installed just outside the front doors of the International Museum in Lexington, Kentucky, at the Park. The value of the bronze, below, is greater because it is a duplicate of the larger, life size Bronze Horse.  Photo By Mike Landis The Phoenix Museum Quality Bronze Edition of 20 - email or call for current pricing. 20.5 inches tall x 25 inches long, mounted on a walnut base. The dynamic presence of five time Word Champion American Saddlebred, The Phoenix, is well-portrayed here. A life sized bronze, which this work duplicates, stands at the entrance to the International Museum, in Lexington, at the Park. Email Patricia (765-288-0484) The Park requested of sculptor Patricia Crane that she sculpt for this site "a steed with a legend". The Phoenix sported a unique personality and championship titles spanning nine consecutive years, from his first show appearance to his last. The Phoenix won as many hearts as he did ribbons. As a bronze he delights thousands of fans who never had a chance to know him in life and stands as a memorial to a grand individual. The 1/5 scale bronze, displayed below is an exact duplication of the larger work. Patricia is a sculptor well-known for her exact and true to life portraits. Her work is in collections world wide, both public and private. She has worked in many media but her fame was first established by her bronzes.
