EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph print, titled "Horse and Jockey" by Palmyra Pimentel, dates back to the 1930s, showcasing the essence of equestrian culture during the 20th century in America. The image, a beautiful fusion of art and function, is a hand-carved wooden sculpture that brings to life the dynamic energy and spirit of a horse race. The intricately detailed carving depicts a powerful horse mid-gallop, its muscles taut and coat glistening with an implied sheen. Atop the horse, a jockey clad in traditional racing attire leans forward, focused and determined, his body in perfect harmony with the animal beneath him. The sculpture's multicolored design, with its vibrant hues and contrasting textures, adds depth and visual interest, making it a stunning addition to any art collection. Originally created during the 1930s and 1940s, this piece reflects the rich heritage of American decorative arts and design. Palmyra Pimentel, the talented artist behind this masterpiece, expertly captured the essence of the equestrian world, providing a glimpse into the past and the enduring allure of horse racing. Number 20 in the Index of American Design, this sculpture is a testament to the skill and artistry of Palmyra Pimentel. It can be found in the National Gallery of Art in Washington D.C., where it continues to inspire and captivate visitors from around the world. Whether admired for its historical significance or its timeless beauty, this Horse and Jockey sculpture is a must-see for any art enthusiast or history buff.
