these horses are the work
of joe fichter.
hope this satisfies your curiosity, j.m.
(and for those of you wondering about the funny lawn...
it is a living sculpture and has been in place for at least 20 years.)

Love these--they show so much movement and strength. Also love that sculpted lawn!
wow they are incredible!
As I said previously, these horses are so well done they actually make you think of horses in action and not just welded together pieces of old metal.
I, too, like the lawn (so long as I don't have to mow it!)...
Hope you're off to a great weekend!

I am fascinated by this piece. It is just beautiful.
These fantastic sculptures look like they may gallop away at any minute.
Sorry if I'm repeating myself!

Brattcat,
Thank you so very much! I love every horse and will keep the author's name in my mind. Brilliant work!
I am all for satisfying J.M.'s curiosity.
I wonder how they keep children from climbing on them. Maybe you have well behaved kids ior attentive parents n Vermont.
Great sculptures. I thought I was hopeless with modern art. I just looked in wrong direction..
Lol about the funny lawn, yes I had imagined it was a feature, I like it! The horses are beautifully done.
I like very much the movement of those horses. They are very alive!
Amazing sculptures. They all capture movement.
Cheers,

It's interesting that Mr. Fitchner actually uses his own horse, Bella, as a model....skittish as she is.
Welding is a skill I would like to attempt someday, having conquered blacksmithing (at least in my mind...). Metal is so fascinating, seemingly immovable, yet malleable. So malleable that it was the Titanic's demise.
That's rather a clever metallic sculpture. The artist must have a hardworking mind to create this.

They are lovely. I especially the photo with the snow.
And thank you for the infor about the lawn...that's really neat.
Extraordinary sculptures, the artist achieve the sense of motion and grace in a perfect way! And thanks for your kind words.
Strange but fascinating horses and you caught the at amazing angles. The lawn is really an artwork itself!
wow.
Can I wonder How they cut that special lawn!11
Wow!Wonderful.
