Horse-Shaped Drinking Vessel

Cleveland Museum of Art

The Horse-Shaped Drinking Vessel, created by the artist, is a sculpture of a horse lying down. The horse has a long neck and a detailed head with a short mane. The body is adorned with a decorative saddle and harness. A chain runs along the horse's side, attached to the saddle. The horse's tail is short and curled. The sculpture appears to be made of metal, possibly silver or pewter, and has a dark patina. The horse rests on a black rectangular base. The background of the image is a gradient from dark gray at the top to light gray at the bottom.
