Armored horse and rider
The sculpture depicts a horse with rider. The horse faces left; its head is turned to the left; it has a chipped and weathered white face with a black eye. A small protrusion is on top of its head. The horse’s body is chipped and weathered gray and white with four visible legs on a flat base. The rider sits on a protrusion on the horse's back, wearing a long robe and a conical hat. The sculpture appears to be made from a material such as clay or stone.
