Private Collection
This solid cherry shallow relief mural depicts Real Quiet's dramatic win at the 1998 Kentucky Derby. The finely muscled horses, distinctive architecture of Churchill Downs, and the carving's finish-line perspective created numerous rewarding challenges for the artist. The historic tradition and natural beauty represented by the Derby itself is matched by the aged Kentucky hardwood and excellent craftsmanship of this carving.
