About this work

This painting shows a winged figure riding a red horse. The rider wears a gold halo and a green-and-gold outfit, holding a spear. The background is a deep blue with swirling clouds and gold leaf borders. The horse has a red saddle and looks fierce, with a blue cloth draped over its back. The figure’s face is calm but intense, and the colors are bright but slightly faded. The gold halo and leafy patterns suggest this is a religious scene. Next, look up equu caballu to see how horses were depicted in old art.
