Il Cavallo - The Horse

Today's challenge was Horse - and this is Il Cavallo.*Leonardo envisioned "Il Cavallo" in the 15th century, but war and circumstance prevented him from completing this masterpiece. The late Charles C. Dent of Allentown, Pa. - a retired commercial airline pilot, diplomatic activist, and arts patron - dedicated the final 17 years of his life to bring The Horse to life. While Charles C. Dent passed away in 1994, the organization he carried on, unveiling the completed 24 foot high statue on September 10, 1999 in San Siro Hippodrome Cultural Park, Milan, Italy. This replica of 1/2 size I would believe.
