 This is a naked horse with a nearly circular body and four legs, which have been ground and adjusted. The neck is thinned by pressing one end of the clay, and the mane is painted on. The tail has a painted inscription on the upper surface. Compared to the body, the head is relatively realistic, and the nostrils stamped with bamboo tubes well capture the expression of the horse.
