The Horses of Anahita Wall Sculpture By William Morris Hunt (1824-1879) in the Art Institute of Chicago. The spectacular horses in this relief appeared in the culminating work of Hunt’s career--a mural commissioned for the capitol of New York, then in Albany, in 1878 (Anahita Flight of Night). A servant of Anahita, Persian goddess of moon and night, leads the vaulting horses from the nearing dawn. Our 19" replica was cast directly from the original. Cast in fiberglass reinforced resin for home and garden use.
