This sculpture depicts a creature that is half human and half horse - a centaur. The hands of this sculpture are tied, and the head and torso rotate significantly to the right and tilt backwards. The right front leg of the horse is raised, and the tail is on the right side. This sculpture is a replica, with an original height of 134 centimeters. It is a replica of one of the two marble sculptures discovered during excavation work at Hadrian's Villa in Rome in 1736, located at the National Museum of Art in Krakow, Poland. In ancient Greek and Roman mythology, centaurs were a mixed race of horse and horse. Centaurs are often depicted in ancient Greek mythology as uncontrollable beasts of sexual and physical violence.
