"Horse Walking" is a bronze sculpture by Edgar Degas, a French artist known for his Impressionist and realist paintings and sculptures. The sculpture, dated between 1881 and 1920, depicts a horse in mid-stride, captured in a moment of dynamic movement. Degas was particularly interested in depicting the motion of animals, and this sculpture exemplifies his fascination with the human form. The sculpture is currently on display at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York. The rough, textured surface and the unfinished aspects of the horse's form contribute to the piece's realism and movement.
