Dear Joe, I have always wondered about the statues of military men mounted on horseback. Some have the horse with all four feet on the ground, some with three,some two as if running and others with two with the horse rearing up. My daughter, working on her masters in art history at UNO, says it has a meaning as to whether the men died in battle,servived,and possibly other things. She can't remember, it was just something said in passing by a professer. Can anyone help?
