Title: Trojan Horse - Benedikt Widmann - Engraved by Ludwig Frank
Post by: marko on September 04, 2015, 07:51:37 PM
A great example of why flat figures are wonderful!

Stunning subject matter - the Trojan Horse along with a nice selection of Greeks.  Beautifully engraved by Ludwig Frank and flawlessly cast by one of our members Benedikt Widmann.

This was purchased via EBay Germany with a kindly assist by Eric Talmant (another example of a great community we have - both Benedikt and Eric provided an assist)

P.S. I suspect I may be temporarily one up on long lost brother Charles this time...

Hi mark,
 I agree this is a great set, I believe it's a partial of a much larger set but you and i should coordinate our wants on Ebay, you don't know how close I came to bidding on this set!!!

Yes, please Eric. 


Benedikt currently has two auctions with some Greeks/Trojans fighting including chariots but, they don't strike me quite like this.  The Trojan horse is pretty stunning.
