Description from the seller

This splendid marble bas-relief from Carrara captures the heroic ideal of antiquity with remarkable dynamism. In the center, a young, nude, and athletic knight, draped only in a flowing cloak, sits with proud composure. He is firmly mounted on a magnificent horse sculpted in full motion.
The flaring nostrils and the powerful musculature of the horse contrast with the calm and control of the rider, whose hand rests steadily on the animal. The work is an exceptional example of classical grace and realistic movement, evoking Greek friezes. A symbol of strength and nobility, it is a fragment of history that celebrates the deep connection between man and animal, transforming marble into a powerful ode to myth.

The marble bas-relief made of Carrara marble is ready to be hung on a wall.
