This striking anatomical model presents an écorché horse, a form designed to reveal the musculature beneath the skin. Originating from France around 1920, this substantial piece served as a detailed study aid, likely for artists or veterinarians, embodying a blend of scientific precision and sculptural artistry.

Crafted from plaster, the model exhibits a finely rendered, off-white surface that highlights the intricate anatomical details. The horse is depicted in a dynamic, trotting pose, its powerful musculature meticulously sculpted to expose the underlying structure, from the definition of the ribs to the tendons in its legs.

Such écorché models are not merely academic tools; they are considered works of art in their own right, reflecting a historical fascination with equine anatomy and form. This particular example, with its impressive scale and detailed execution, offers a distinctive decorative accent for a study, library, or a collection focused on natural history or classical art.
