Standing with head turned tautly to the left and long straw-glazed mane swept over to one side of the muscular neck, the trappings molded with florets and hung with 'apricot' leaf medallions, and the unglazed saddle cloth set atop a contrasting splash-glazed blanket - 20 5/8in. (52.4cm.) high - Lot 215. Estimate $25,000 - $30,000Price Realized $28,680

The result of Oxford Authentication Ltd. thermoluminescence test no. C102k67 is consistent with the dating of this lot.
