When the lever is activated, five chariots pulled by ten horses are set in motion and move in a straight line. The race begins and bets are placed by spectators, transforming a complex mechanism into a playful artwork yielding an entirely random result.<\/p>\n<p>The race takes place without music in order to amplify the sound of the galloping horses. Only when all the horses have crossed the finishing line does the tune of the \u201cVictory Parade\u201d sound, which many will recognise from the film <em>Ben-Hur<\/em> with Charlton Heston (1959).<\/p>\n<div style=\"width: 960px;\" class=\"wp-video\"><!--[if lt IE 9]><script>document.createElement('video');<\/script><![endif]-->\n<video class=\"wp-video-shortcode\" id=\"video-101877-1\" width=\"960\" height=\"540\" poster=\"https:\/\/sobarnes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Ben-Hur-Box-N12-LAURELWREATH.jpg\" preload=\"metadata\" controls=\"controls\"><source type=\"video\/mp4\" src=\"https:\/\/sobarnes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/MILIARIUS-Video.mp4?_=1\" \/><a href=\"https:\/\/sobarnes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/MILIARIUS-Video.mp4\">https:\/\/sobarnes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/MILIARIUS-Video.mp4<\/a><\/video><\/div>\n<p>The production of such a music box takes around one year, during which the Reuge craftsmen employ their world unique expertise.
