Jockey Hitching Post

Elizabeth Fairchild

National Gallery of Art

The sculpture depicts a jockey in traditional attire. The figure stands upright with their left arm bent and slightly extended forward, while the right arm rests on their hip. The jockey wears a red jacket, white pants, yellow sleeves, tall black boots, and a yellow cap. The sculpture is placed on a plain base against a simple background, giving it a realistic appearance of a ready-to-race jockey.
