中國古代，漢朝 彩绘陶器 陶器马背上的骑士像 - 24 cm

Description
This painted pottery figure depicts a mounted rider seated on a standing horse. The rider is shown upright with both hands extended forward, presumably holding the reins. The horse has a raised head, upright neck, sturdy body, and slender legs, standing on a rectangular base. Traces of red and white pigment remain visible across the horse, saddle cloth, and rider.
The figure is characterized by its simple yet expressive modeling, with attention given to the rider's posture, the horse's anatomy, and the details of the saddle and clothing. The remaining pigments and aged surface contribute to its historical character.
The surface exhibits natural weathering, earthen encrustation, pigment loss, surface wear, and minor losses consistent with age.
