Equestrian statue of Vercingetorix. Bartholdi

This equestrian statue was designed by famous sculptor Auguste Bartholdi to commemorate the Gaul leader's victory over Caesar at Gergovie, in 52 BC. The first plans for the statue were drawn up in the 1860s but it was only finished and installed in 1903 during a ceremony presided over by the President of the Council, Emile Combes. The exceptional talent of the sculptor, who was also the creator of the Statue of Liberty in New York, can be seen in the extraordinary vitality of the horse and rider. http://www.clermontferrandtourism.com/discovery/main-sites/statue-vercingetorix/ Source: Objaverse 1.0 / Sketchfab
