"Cheval attaqué par un tigre" (Horse Attacked by a Tiger) is a renowned sculpture by the French artist Antoine-Louis Barye, who is often hailed as the "Michelangelo of the Menagerie" due to his mastery in depicting animal subjects. Created in 1836, this dynamic bronze work exemplifies Barye's fascination with the natural world and his exceptional ability to capture the ferocity and movement of wild animals in combat.

The sculpture portrays a dramatic moment of a tiger pouncing upon an unsuspecting horse, encapsulating the raw power and struggle for survival that is characteristic of the animal kingdom. Barye's attention to anatomical accuracy and his skillful rendering of the animals' musculature and expressions imbue the piece with a sense of immediacy and tension. The composition is both violent and graceful, with the fluid lines and intricate details drawing the viewer into the action.

As a leading figure of the French Romantic movement, Barye broke away from the traditional neoclassical subjects of his time, focusing instead on more exotic and untamed themes that emphasized emotion and the sublime. "Cheval attaqué par un tigre" is a testament to his innovative approach and stands as a significant work within the Romantic tradition, reflecting the era's preoccupation with nature's power and the human experience of awe and fear.

The sculpture not only solidified Barye's reputation as a pioneer in animalier sculpture—a genre that focuses on realistic portrayals of animals—but also influenced subsequent generations of artists. Today, "Cheval attaqué par un tigre" is celebrated for its artistic merit and historical significance, and it remains an important example of Barye's enduring legacy in the world of fine arts. The piece can be found in various art collections, including the Louvre Museum in Paris, where it continues to be admired by art enthusiasts and the general public alike.
