Description

A grey terracotta group on a flat rectangular base shows a two-wheeled cart with a box-like body. A seated figure with folded arms sits in the cart, and a second figure with a tall pointed head stands behind. In front, a team of animals with long legs and elongated heads stretches to the right, with a wheel visible on the left and a worn, mottled surface.
