Colossus

The horse of samorin The largest equine statue in the world

The largest equine statue in history

The Colossus is one of the greatest permanent public artworks by the artist, currently the largest horse sculpture in the world. The dynamism and power of the monument is achieved through thousands of individually welded, shard-like stainless steel plates that form an 8.3-meter-high, 14.6-meter-long, 20-ton galloping horse tilted at a 10-degree angle. The artwork is situated next to the main entrance of the most modern riding center in Europe, the X-bionic Sphere in Samorin, Slovakia.
