caption: The image shows a painting on the wall of a house in Pompeii, Italy depicting a man on a horse with a bird perched on his shoulder. The painting is composed of a variety of colors, including blues, greens, and yellows, and the man is wearing a long, flowing robe and a hat. He is standing in a field of tall grass, with a bright blue sky and white clouds in the background. The horse is galloping forward, its mane and tail flowing in the wind. The bird is perched atop the man's shoulder, its wings spread wide and its beak open as if it is about to take flight.
