The sculpture of Philip IV of Madrid's Oriental Plaza, with its unique and majestic shape, brought the Oriental Plaza to fire. Oriental Plaza, built by the invader King José Bonaparte I (brother of Napoleon), was completed in 1844, adjacent to the east gate of the Palace of Madrid (main gate) to the west and connected to the Royal Theatre to the southeast. The square's spacious boulevards, neat green plants, beautiful round fountains, neat tall statues (about 20 statues of Spanish kings), are full of French style. The bronze statue of the marble pedestal at the C-place of the square is a 12-metre-high Philip IV rod-drawn sculpture built in 1640. Most of the riding sculptures are three hoofs landing on the ground, ensuring the sculpture's stability with three pivots. To show the power of Felipe IV, the sculpture emptied the front hoof of the horse, but the technology at the time was difficult to balance the bronze statue. Galileo, the father of modern physics, gave the answer and used two methods to achieve balance: one is to cleverly make the horse tail to the ground, the horse tail and the rear hoof form a 3-point balance; the second is to make the horse's rear adopt a solid state, the front is hollow state, so that the center of gravity is moved back to three pivots. Thus, the sculpture of the vacated by the horses' double hoofs was born horizontally, and it is still proud of the Qunxiong and Weizhen Quartet.

The Plaza de Oriente in Madrid is a monumental space that has different gardens and an excellent exhibition of sculptures of Spanish kings.Designed in 1844 by the architect Narciso Pascual y Colomer, the square was built under the orders of King José I after the demolition of the medieval houses that were in the area.very very excellent view in the evening!
Located in the Oriental Square on the east side of the palace, the statue in the center is King Philip IV, and the statue of the prince on both sides. The leaves on the top of the head have turned golden yellow, and finally there is autumn, and it looks much cooler than King Philip IV.
The Oriental Plaza is a garden square in Madrid, Spain, whose history can be traced back to the 19th century Joseph • Bonaparte period, on the west and east side of the square are the Palace of Madrid and the Royal Theatre, on the side of the Royal Theatre. The biggest point of view in the square is the statue of Philip IV, which is supported by the horse's hind hoof. The usual horse-riding figures tend to be one foot off the ground, while Philip IV's mount can be both feet off the ground, because Galileo's inspiration was used, the horse's rear hoof is solid, the front hoof is hollow, solving the problem of balance between the towering horse's head and the rear hoof.
On the west and east side of the Oriental Plaza are the Palace of Madrid and the Royal Theatre, with fountains and statues of King Philip IV riding in the garden. On the side of the Royal Theatre, a series of small bars are arranged in semicircles.
