EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite craftsmanship of Hans Ludwig Kienle's "Horse and Rider, Ulm, 1630". Created in the 17th century, this stunning piece falls under the category of applied arts in Europe. The artistry displayed here is truly remarkable, as Kienle masterfully captures both the animal likeness and human likeness with incredible attention to detail. The gilded silver and gold elements add a touch of opulence to this sculpture, elevating it to a level of grandeur. The horse and rider stand proudly as symbols of strength and power, evoking a sense of awe in anyone who beholds them. Located at the Art Institute Chicago's gallery, this heritage artwork represents an important part of German artistic history. It serves as a testament to Kienle's skillful metalwork and his ability to bring life-like forms into existence through his sculptures. The nakedness portrayed by the rider adds an intriguing layer to this piece. It hints at vulnerability amidst war or battle scenes that were prevalent during that era. This statuette not only captures historical significance but also invites viewers to ponder upon deeper concepts such as courage and resilience. Overall, "Horse and Rider" is a magnificent example of European decorative arts from the seventeenth century. Its presence within the Art Institute Chicago allows visitors to immerse themselves in its beauty while appreciating its cultural value for generations to come.
