Description

VENETIC HORSE – GILT PIN BADGE

Symbol of power, nobility, wisdom, beauty ... 

(pin for a tie, jacket, dress, scarf ..., 2 cm x 2 cm, metal, gilding (18ct gold))
 
A few centuries after it was depicted on situlas, Greek and Roman authors wrote that the Veneti people were the best horse breeders. The Veneti depicted horses everywhere – not in a realistic manner, which was the case in Greek and Roman art, but in a stylised form.
Stylised depictions of horses show what nature cannot, namely the horse’s spiritual nature.
We have to say that the stylised depiction of a horse on the Vače situla attracted the artist’s attention right away, and thus he used it as a model for his own oversize figure of the Venetic horse.
The statue quickly won public attention, and today its duplicates stand at several locations: in front of the Palace of Nations in Geneva, at the Nebug complex in Sochi on the Black Sea coast, in front of the former parliament building in Jerusalem, at the World Trade Centre in Ljubljana and in the Town Square in Slovenj Gradec.

You can see more about the bronze sculptures, the production process and research into the energetic influence of the Venetic horse in supernatural size at these links: LjubljanaSlovenj Gradec, Švica, Jeruzalem in Rusija.
