From the battlefield to the animal kingdom, rearing signifies strength and power. In Napoleon Crossing the Grand Saint-Bernard Pass, we witness the determination of a leader conquering great heights. Similarly, At the Front recruitment poster during World War One reminds us of the bravery required in times of conflict. The Grizzly Bear WAT 4216 Standing Ursus arctos horribilis captures a moment of primal dominance in nature's realm. George Stubbs' Whistlejacket showcases the elegance and grace of a horse rearing with poise and beauty. Meanwhile, Lords Cricket Ground transformed into a Goose Farm during WW1 demonstrates adaptability amidst chaos. The Hares Boxing depict an unexpected display of aggression among seemingly docile creatures, reminding us that appearances can be deceiving. Praxiteles' Hermes statue immortalizes divine strength as he stands tall on his toes. In contrast, Rough Collie Dog Standing on bench portrays loyalty and companionship through its playful stance. Rosa Bonheur's The Horse Fair transports us to a bustling market where horses rear up in excitement, symbolizing their untamed spirit.
