From the Getty Museum record
Statuette of a man riding a horse. The man sits up straight and tall in his saddle. He has long hair cut short in the front. His eyes are large and protruding. He wears a cylindrical crown, a long tunic, and boots and carries an orb in his right hand. The horse is depicted with both his right front and back legs lifted off of the ground. The details of the saddle and bridle are clearly delineated. The statuette is well-preserved with little visible damage.
