WETA - The Lord of the Rings Trilogy - Faramir Charge on Osgiliath - 1:6 Scale Statue

 

Beneath the ashen sky of Osgiliath, Faramir rode forth with the sons of Gondor, their banners pale against the gathering shadow of Mordor. Though doom waited upon the broken causeway and no hope shone before them, they spurred onward with the valour of Men who hold faith with duty when all else has failed. Their courage was undeniable, yet valour alone is no guarantee of victory.

 

This dynamic statue portrays the Captain of Gondor mounted on his horse at full stride, clad in his distinctive armour and leading the damned assault upon Osgiliath. Sword thrust forward and mouth open in command, the sculpt captures the precise moment Faramir commits himself and his men to the charge. Though the action may be futile, he neither falters nor turns aside. 

 

For sculptor Gary Hunt, Faramir was a character worth championing. Often cast as something of an underdog, he presented one of the trilogy's finest character arcs: a man who proved himself far greater than his father ever recognised, and who let the Ring pass by so its bearer could journey on. Rendering the charge meant balancing the outward gallantry of the charge with Faramir’s hopeless devotion to a father he’ll never impress.

 

Rich in detail and charged with motion, this limited-edition 1:6 scale statue honours the courage and duty of Faramir facing the harsh realities of a war-torn Middle-earth: doomed yet unbroken.
