A circular bronze sculpture in low relief depicts a winged horse and three nude figures. On our left, the horse rears upward with bent front legs. In the center, a muscular male stands with his back to us, reaching his right arm toward clouds. To his right, a female leaps with both arms raised above her head. On the far right, another male stands with his right leg on a rocky outcrop. The sculpture is dark bronze.
