Description: finely impressed Sassanian terracotta bulla, depicting a horseman in a full clibanarius-type armour. Rendered in a stylistic manner, both the horse and the rider are seen in profile facing right. Such iconographic formula reveals the mans status as a ruler, based on the convention in Sasanian art established with king Ardashir I (AD 180 242), which wanted kings portrayed facing rightwards. The man has well-defined facial features, a prominent nose: a large eye and a long beard; he holds a long lance in his right hand, while the sheath of a sword hangs from his waist. A Pahlavi inscription is written around the central image. PAYMENT POLICY: Payment must be made within 3 days.
