This photograph, taken by Chris Redgrave in 2015, showcases the remarkable sculpture "Horse and Rider" by Elisabeth Frink. Located at Dover Street and Piccadilly in Mayfair, London, this post-war masterpiece stands as a testament to Frink's exceptional talent. The image captures the sculpture from the southwest angle, allowing us to appreciate its intricate details. The powerful presence of the horse is undeniable as it rears up on its hind legs with an air of strength and determination. Its muscular form is beautifully captured in this print, highlighting every sinew and curve. Perched atop the horse is a rider who exudes elegance and grace. Their posture suggests a sense of control over such a majestic creature beneath them. The viewer can almost feel their connection through this frozen moment in time. Chris Redgrave's expert photography brings out the texture of both horse and rider, emphasizing their raw beauty against the backdrop of bustling city streets. The contrast between the timeless sculpture and modern urban surroundings creates an intriguing juxtaposition that further enhances our appreciation for Frink's work. This photograph serves as a reminder of how art has the power to transcend time and space, evoking emotions within all those who encounter it. It invites viewers to delve into their own interpretations while marveling at Frink's ability to capture movement within stillness.
