Description: AUSTIN PRODUCTIONS Vintage 70s "Flaming Mane" Sculpture - James Killian Spratt This listing is for a stunning production of James Killian Spratt's iconic horse head sculpture titled "Flaming Mane". This substantial piece is made of DURASTONE, a dense plaster-based material with the strength of ceramic but the unique sound of metal. Cast by AUSTIN PRODUCTIONS in 1978, this hyper-realistic sculpture is hand painted in a faux bronze tone with verdigris accents. Back includes "J. Spratt" signature along with manufacturer markings and date. Bottom is finished with the original felt lining to protect surfaces. Dimensions/Measurements: 12.5"L x 5.25"W x 12.25"H, very heavy piece weighing 7lb 12oz Condition: Great condition, pre-owned vintage sculpture that has been well-maintained for age of piece. Does have some minor surface imperfections typical for material and finishing technique (refer to photos). During his starving artist days, James Killian Spratt sculpted the original horse head piece called "Flaming Mane" in just two hours in the middle of the night while worried about raising his young family. He would later cherish this popular work as his "gold record." In the 1970s AUSTIN PRODUCTIONS of New York, one of the largest museum reproduction companies, appointed Spratt as sculptor in residence, commissioning him to create countless original figurines and statutes for the mass market.
