Epona - Celtic Goddess of Horse, as in this figurative bronze sculpture , is traditionally portrayed with a key, raven and cornucopia - symbols of bounty and blessing.
During the Roman invasion of Britain the soldiers of the Roman Cavalry sought her protection.
Effigies of her were kept beside their horses in the stables and were carried in saddlebags, thus her popularity was spread throughout Europe into Africa.
Art by bronze sculptor, J. Anne Butler is highly sought.
