Description

A hand-modelled terracotta group on an oval base shows a vehicle with two standing figures, one wearing a tall pointed cap and raising an arm, the other wearing a helmet-like cap and holding a round shield. Several horses with long necks stand in a row in front of the figures, and a disc-shaped wheel with a hub sits at the left. The surface is grey and worn, with some cracks and rough modelling visible.
