EDITORS COMMENTS
John Graham Lough's captivating sculpture, "Duncan's Horses (image 2 of 5)", created in the 1830s, showcases the artist's mastery of the equine form. This 19th-century work of art, now a cherished addition to the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA) collection, is a testament to the enduring fascination with horses that spanned both sides of the Atlantic during this period. British-born Lough, who spent much of his career in America, expertly captured the power, grace, and elegance of these horses in this plaster sculpture. Set atop an original wood base and protected by an original glass bell, the horses appear to be frozen in a moment of dynamic movement, their muscles taut and their forms fluid. The horses' expressive eyes and intricately detailed manes and tails add to their lifelike quality, making it easy to imagine them as living, breathing creatures. This work is not only a stunning example of Lough's artistic skill but also a window into the past, offering a glimpse into the horse-drawn world of the 19th century. As a prominent figure in the American art scene, Lough's works were highly sought after by collectors on both sides of the Atlantic. Today, "Duncan's Horses (image 2 of 5)" stands as a proud reminder of the rich artistic heritage shared between Europe and America during the 19th century. This sculpture continues to captivate and inspire visitors to LACMA, inviting them to explore the history and beauty of this iconic animal.
