Additional Notes & Condition Report
The subject's rifle is broken at his shoulder. The broken element is missing. There is a post near the horse's withers that I have not observed in other examples of the work. The reins are most likely a later addition. There is some wear to the patina in places and small amounts of oxidation in the recesses.
