Northern Qi dynasty
Wearing heavy armor and a close-fitted helmet, his expression fierce and determined, looking slightly to the left with both arms relaxed, his hands in fists as if holding the rein, the horse standing foursquare on a rectangular base wearing long protective blanket and a fitted face shield, a small pierced hole at the rump for attaching an ornament, the freely painted black lines over red-and-white stripes on the armor and blanket suggesting scales of leather, with few remains of earth encrustation from burial.
8 3/4in (22.5cm) high
