HORSE AND RIDER One finds many horse and rider ceramic sculptures mostly in the Mediterranean region of the world. These are separated by many hundreds of years, so they do not share a common cultural relationship or tradition. These represent a popular theme in the human imagination.
I have created quite a few similar scuptures over the years. This photo was taken near Yosemite Park in California.
