About the Artwork
Marini is most famous for his figurative sculptures of the horse and rider theme, but he also produced numerous paintings and graphic works, including this print. The artwork depicts abstract forms, which some sources interpret as a toppling horse and rider, a powerful image that expresses shock and fear, reflecting the artist's post-war pessimism. The name may refer to the biblical conversion of Paul, who was thrown from his horse. |
