Northern Wei Dynasty figurine of a horse standing, stocky neck, proportionately large ears, small body, long and slim legs, and twisted tail. The saddle gear and body are incised with lines for decoration to render a realistic appearance. The red pigments and white coat have faded and chipped away, other colours spot the surface due to chemical reactions.
