Horseman and Foot-Soldier 

"Horseman and Foot-Soldier" is a small bronze plaquette created by the Italian Renaissance artist Andrea Briosco, nicknamed Riccio. This work showcases Riccio's talent for detailed and expressive relief sculpture. The plaquette depicts a dramatic scene of a mounted warrior charging down a fallen soldier, highlighting the artist's interest in classical themes and the power of human action. This small-scale bronze object, measuring only 8.2 x 6.5 cm, demonstrates Riccio's masterful ability to convey dynamic movement and emotion within a limited space, typical of plaquettes.
