Porcelain sculpture depicting the central character from the pictorial universe of Spanish artist Dulk. A creation from the Ephemeral Treasures collection.

Soul Rider is a protector of nature and guide for souls in danger. This porcelain creation marks the first time the character is depicted as an independent sculpture, moving from a symbolic guardian in Dulk's murals to a tangible presence in our daily lives.

Soul Rider stands on a 'flower-skull', a symbol of the danger that nature faces - while his face and his banner are in the shape of a heart, synonymous with love as an antidote to fear.

This protective guardian is worked down to the smallest detail: the engraving of the flower, the clothing, the face with the bulging eyes and the ornate beak. Soft colors have been chosen for the decoration, with blues and creams predominating.

Soul Rider can also be seen as a symbol of hope and redemption. In this piece, Dulk uses the minute details in the porcelain to highlight the delicacy of this relationship between man and nature, with Soul Rider acting as a bridge between the two worlds

Lladro 01008418 DRESSAGE


Issue Year: 2008 
Sculptor: José Luis Santes 
Size: 33x38 cm

A very elegant piece combining a lady and a horse. She is dressed in the usual classic attire for riders at competition: high black boots, long dark frock coat, riding breeches, top hat and white gloves.The saddle is placed on a grey pad to protect the animal’s back. The horse does not intend to portrait a specific breed, it can be any warm blood. But it appears beautifully well groomed for the exhibition. The mane is artistically braided for the equestrian event. Classic porcelain with the traditional colors of Lladro, with intense dark blues for the attire and brown for the horse.
