A rare equestrian figure depicting Prince Albert on horseback.
Albert, in military garb with a plumed hat, sits on a well-clad brown horse with a green saddle cloth. He is modelled on a white, rocky base. The figure’s title - ‘P ALBERT’ - is written in gilt, raised, serif capital letters (although the gilt has faded).
The figure is offered in good, professionally repaired condition. It displays excellently. There is a professional, practically invisible repair to the neck, a small flake to Albert’s right shoe, and an old lateral crack to the back of the figure just above the base.
Reference: Possibly unrecorded
Height: 7.75”
Date: c. 1850
Provenance: The Alan D. Sturrock Collection
