TAXIDERMY: A UNIQUE COMPARATIVE ANATOMY HORSE HEAD

TAXIDERMY: A UNIQUE COMPARATIVE ANATOMY HORSE HEAD, a fascinating specimen composing one half of the horse head with hair and glass eye (prepared using the highly skilled and rarely offered process of ‘erosion casting’ by which the specimen only retains the hair and no skin), and the other half the skull displayed with partial spine (atlas vertebrate and three others). With jaws dissected to show growth of teeth, revealing the roots of all teeth.

59cms high x 71cms long; max width 29cms (diameter of base)

Sold for £1,125
