Roman 15th Century

1 work

The sculpture is an oval-shaped relief featuring a dynamic scene with two figures. On the left side of the relief, a centaur is depicted. The centaur is in motion, with horse legs shown mid-step, and the human torso slightly turned with one arm raised. On the right, a human figure, possibly a warrior, is walking briskly and pulling an object with a rope. The human is depicted in a muscular form with detail given to the musculature and limbs. The relief is made from a metal material, likely bronze, with a brown color and a patina finish that adds depth to the details. The material is a dark, burnished bronze, with some areas highlighting lighter shades that accentuate the outlines and contours of the figures.
