Horse Figurines


HorsesI will not change my horse with any that treads but on four pasterns...When I bestride him, I soar, I am a hawk. He trots the air, the earth sings when he touches it, the basest horn of his hoofs is more musical than the pipe of Hermes...When bestride him I soar, I am a hawk... – William Shakespeare

Man tends to think of himself as the changer of history, for the better and sometimes, the worse. But stop and ask yourself, where Man would be historically speaking, if it were not for the horse.

Horse Figurines

The first records of domestication date back to between 4500 and 3000B.C in the Eurasian Steppes when draft animals were captured and raised for meat and milk. The tribes there, needing to move from summer to winter quarters, began to train the early horse as a pack animal, which enabled them to travel further.

By 1580B.C. the Egyptians had also begun using the horse for travel, and for drawing their chariots, and so the horse entered into battle. The development of horses as a tool for Man was rapid, and in 1360B.C. the first training book, the Kikkuli Text, was written in Greece. The founder of modern horsemanship, was also a Greek, named Xenophon. His text, written in 430B.C. laid down the principles of methods that are still in use, today.

When body armor was developed in Persia in the 1400s, soldiers were too heavy to march, or function effectively on foot. Their use of horses to wage battle, spread throughout Europe and into England. Horses not capable of lasting through a campaign, ended up as sources of transportation and labor, on farms.

In the 1600s, King James I imported Arabian horses to England and began crossing them with light horses. Early in the 1700s, the three horses to which all present day thoroughbreds can trace their pedigrees, arrived: the Byerly Turk, the Darley Arabian, and the Godolphin Barb. Justin Morgan, sire of the American Morgan breed, was descended from the Byerly Turk. Messenger, the foundation of the Standardbred and American Saddlebred, was descended from the Darley Arabian.

With only a small percentage of the world’s horses being kept for draft and other duties, today’s equines draw carriages, race, jump, perform fancy footwork, and provide many a young girl and boy, with their first thrill of traveling through a power that is not their own.

Horse figurines have adorned trophies and mantle pieces for centuries. Their treasured place in the history and hearts of Man means their image appears on home décor items such as wall hangings, rugs, pillows, and paintings. Collectors of unique equine objects may come across crystal stallions, pottery replicas of the Terra Cotta horses in an ancient Chinese tomb, hand-carved replicas of the Trojan Horse, or sleek and elegant porcelain horse figurines that are hand-painted as carefully as any great work of art.

Historical Horses
  • Bucephalus (died 326B.C.): personal mount of Alexander the Great. Mortally wounded in a battle on the bank of the Hydaspes, he turned and raced back through the ranks, stopped and kneeled allowing Alexander to dismount, then collapsed and died.
  • Comanche (died 1890): touted as the only survivor of Custer’s last stand, which proved not to be true. Comanche was not even Custer’s horse, but belonged to a lieutenant.
  • Marengo (died 1832): reportedly Napoleon’s favorite horse. Acquired in 1799 after the Egyptian campaign, Bonaparte rode him through several battles until he was captured by the English at Waterloo, in 1815. He was then taken back to England and put out to stud. On his death, his skeleton was articulated and displayed in the National Army Museum
  • Black Gold (died 1928) Winner of the Golden Anniversary 50th running of the Kentucky Derby, he turned out to be a fertility flop. The only colt he sired, was struck and killed by lightning. With no future siring progeny, he returned to the track, but never won another race, and plagued by a quarter crack, broke his leg in a race and was humanely put down at the age of seven
  • Trigger (died 1965): famous mount of cowboy movie star, Roy Rogers. Trigger was not “stuffed” as popular belief has it. When he died at the age of 31, his skin was stretched over a plaster mold, posed in a rearing position, where he towers today at the museum in Branson, Missouri.
