Description

A centaur is a half-human, half-horse monster in ancient Greek mythology. Their upper body is a human torso, and their lower body is a horse’s body, including the waist and four legs. This female centaur statue presents mythology in a novel way. A handsome young centaur is kissing a woman. There was also a panicked leopard under the horse. Every detail of the female centaur statue is very delicate under the bronze casting. In Greco-Roman mythology, the lecherous centaurs represent the uncivilized, lawless and instinctive side of human nature. At the wedding feast of King Lapith, the centaurs tried to kidnap the bride, rape the female guest, and attack the host with tree trunks and stones. The Lapiths eventually defeated the centaurs, symbolizing the victory of knowledge and reason over instinct and animal passions. Some people think that the centaur was a reflection of the nomads from Central Asia by the Greeks, who had never seen cavalry at that time. And this female centaur statue also breaks through the bad image and shows the charm of art.
