EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the magnificent "Horse and Rider" sculpture by renowned artist David Wynne, located in the Fountain Precinct at Barkers Pool in Sheffield City Centre. The sculpture stands as a testament to the city's appreciation for public art and its commitment to preserving cultural heritage. The plaque of black marble accompanying this striking artwork bears an inscription that reads, "Horse and Rider, David Wynne presented to the people of Sheffield by the family of the late Hyman Stone in his memory". This heartfelt gesture from Stone's family adds a poignant layer of significance to this already remarkable piece. Notably, it was also created with immense support from Gauntlet Developments, a member of the Slough Estates Group. Their contribution played an instrumental role in shaping its immediate surroundings and ensuring that this artistic masterpiece seamlessly integrates into its urban environment. Wynne's exceptional talent is evident through his meticulous attention to detail, capturing both the gracefulness and strength of horses. The sculpture exudes a sense of motion frozen in time as horse and rider appear ready to embark on an epic journey together. As visitors pass through Barker Pool's bustling streets, they are greeted by this awe-inspiring sight—a symbol not only of artistic excellence but also a reminder of our shared history and collective appreciation for beauty.
