Ah, pegasus. I have a certain wonder for the winged horse... I have a few statues of the creature (off-white though, not black like this one), and I just adore them. Mind you, not unicorns, but winged horses. I want one (a real one, that is)! Hahaha. Anyways, I love horses in general, so my loving this creature doesn't come as any surprise...
[post-artwork-creation note: From my mythology text: "According to Ovid, [Pegasus's] hoof struck Mt. Helicon and caused the fountain Hippocrene (Horse's Fountain) to gush forth, which from then on was loved by the Muses and associated with poetic inspiration."]
