02.23.24: In my opinion regarding LOT 1182: As described there are two horses with hairlines at the lower legs, one of them having a small amount of visible adhesive from a previous repair, the leg directly behind is not mounted to the base (slight gap between the two elements), I note that the sculpture is intact and stands sturdy against flat display surface, the base exhibits multiple splits to the wood, the feet appear to securely support base and sculpture, and the reigns remain attached to each respective end point
