About This Artwork
A whimsical sculpture featuring a life-sized fiberglass horse standing atop a 20-foot tall red steel chair outside the Denver Public Library's Children's Wing. Voted Denver's favorite sculpture, the dramatic juxtaposition of scale creates a surreal, Gulliver's Travels-like effect.
