From this angle the sculpture becomes even more assertive. You can feel the inertia breaking in the way it leans forward toward the street. The great arcs suggest enormous broadswords being swung by the knights.

Thank you very much for including the link to Eila Hiltunen's site. I am delighted to encounter her work, which spans such a range of media and scale. She was amazing!
