Athens/Chalandri (Greece), acquired in 1845
Marble, around 400 BC
Both of the depiction of the equestrian victoriously riding over his opponent and the epigram praise the deceased hailing from the Athenian community (demos) of Phlya for his courage and victories in battle. A possible model may have been a monument to fallen soldiers in the state cemetery outside the Dipylon Gate (demosion sema).
