Japanese bronze by d’Itô KUNIO - Horse

Itô KUNIO (1890–1970), born in Iwate, was a Japanese sculptor and artist known for devoting his life to creating bronze horse sculptures.

He exhibited, among others, at the National Bunten Exhibition and the National Art Society Exhibition. He is widely recognized for his expert depiction of horses in motion. "Rush of a Gun Carriage" (Horses pulling a gun carriage through the mud) by the artist is in the National Museum of Modern Art, Tokyo. His sculpture of Emperor Meiji's horse (created under the supervision of the Imperial Household Services) stands among 700 cherry trees in Atago Park, Noheji, Aomori Prefecture. Two large sculptures of a horse and a horse with its foal are on the grounds of the Hokkaido Agricultural School.

For more, see the 1968 book: Uma, Itô Kunio no Chokoku (sculptures of Itô Kunio, by Genjiro Kuribayashi).
