AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Bronze Sao rider
This small African sculpture in bronze constitutes, for the Sao, a talisman believed to protect them from madness. It is therefore worn at all times. The spirit that would possess the madman is represented by the rider, the horse standing for the victim.
