Description

A small clay group shows two figures in conical caps riding a cart-like body, one arm reaching forward as if holding reins. Four animals with long necks and straps stand in a row at the front, pulling it. A solid disc-shaped wheel is at the right side and a round studded object sits at the back, all on a flat oval base photographed against a plain grey backdrop.
