Poseidon or Neptune with a Seahorse. Glazed porcelain. Europe, 19th century.
Glazed porcelain figurine with a circular base, decorated with openwork elements and Rococo-inspired motifs enhanced with touches of gold, representing a bearded, half-naked male figure, standing, wearing a purple and white cloak, accompanied by a monster that is half-horse, half-fish. The figure is the classical god Poseidon or Neptune, and the creature is known as a seahorse.
