| Obverse description | Nude youth (ephebus) seated astride a horse pacing to the left, raising his right hand to crown the horse with a wreath. The magistrate's monogram NK appears in the upper right field, with the legend ΦΙΛΟKPA inscribed below the groundline in the exergue. The composition is rendered in fine Tarentine style with naturalistic modeling of both the rider and the horse. |
