German or South Netherlandish 17th Century

National Gallery of Art

The sculpture depicts a chariot-like vehicle being drawn by two lions. A figure is seated on the chariot, along with two others seated behind. In front of the chariot stands a figure holding a staff, leading the lions. The sculpture is made from a dark, likely metallic material with an aged brown patina. It is designed in high relief on a rectangular plaque, creating a dimensional effect.
