caption: The image shows an ivory netsuke of a man on a horse, set against a white background. The man is wearing a traditional Japanese outfit, with a hat and a long robe, and is holding a sword in one hand and a shield in the other. He is standing atop a horse-drawn carriage, with its mane and tail flowing in the wind. The sculpture is intricately detailed, with the man's facial features and clothing carefully carved into the ivory.
