This masterful bronze sculpture by Thomas Holland captures the high-intensity action of a polo match. The piece features a polo player and his pony in a dramatic, athletic pose, demonstrating Holland’s signature ability to convey fluid motion and tension in cast metal. The athlete is depicted leaning low from the saddle, mallet poised, while the horse is shown in a spirited stride. The work is finished with a deep, multi-toned patina that emphasizes the muscularity of the horse and the folds of the rider's uniform. It is mounted on a substantial integrated base, making it a classic example of 20th-century American sporting art.
