The pair of foals are artifacts from the Kamakura period (1185-1333) in Japan. They are made of Japanese cypress wood with lacquer, gold leaf and color. The height of this foal is 45.7cm. Colts are usually placed at the entrance to the shrine to ward off evil. The colt on the right has an open mouth, while the colt on the left has a closed mouth. These characteristics are related to the opening and closing of the two door gods who protect Buddhist temples. Collected at the Cleveland Museum of Art.
