Description
Taken from a fragment of the Acropolis, this ancient rider participates, I believe, in a funerary symbolism similar to that of the iconography of other riders such as the one found in graffiti on a plaque thrown into a tomb of Cástulo, dated the s. IV B.C, or two other riders who crowned the two mounds of Villares, in Spain. In the broken neck of the animal, which in the composition is made to coincide with the sex of the rider, I seem to see some reminiscence of castration as a symbol also of the fertilizing power of natural forces, here diminished and overshadowed by the disintegrating power of death
