Enquire about this objectFull original description
Curious motherhood mounted on horseback with a son on the hog, sucking, another two one on either side, standing and behind her and another lying along the beginning of the scene. The horse is a tiny mount. Both the children and the horse occupy by their size and by the details of their sculpture a very secondary place to highlight the figure of the mother. Black patina with pinkish tones in some parts.
