S. Mauro Forte is full of these carved faces, sometimes human, sometimes animal, almost always grimacing or smiling: they are ornamental hitches for horses to be tied to, in front of the main palazzi. From palazzo Deufemia.
We watched them while we were hiking and they began in two circles that unwound, then formed this line.
Tethered horse sculpture Liverpool near to Albert Dock.
This public art is near to Albert Dock. "This sculpture was fashioned in rope before being cast in bronze. It is an anatomically correct horse, 15ft high and 4 tons in weight. At the horse's tail, a length of rope extends to the ground where a life-size sculpture of a man steps upon the rope 'forcing the horse to rear and unravel itself in a bid for freedom'. This scene is intended to reflect man's efforts to free himself of slavery."
This picture was actually taken in Bardolini, Italy and not in the location that Flickr has randomly chosen!
