Centerpiece (lid)

Charles-Nicolas Odiot

Cleveland Museum of Art

The sculpture depicts a man struggling with a horse. The shiny gold-colored metal sculpture sits atop a decorative base. The man has short hair and wears a long-sleeved shirt and boots, and appears to be trying to restrain the horse. The horse faces right and rears up on its hind legs. Its front legs are bent and held by the man, and it has a bridle around its neck. The base features a circular design with raised patterns. The background is uniform dark gray. The sculpture is by Charles-Nicolas Odiot, and is titled "Centerpiece (lid)".
