Sagittarius

myminifactory

This is an exquisite marble relief portraying Sagittarius, a half-human and half-horse centaur archer revered in mythology for his exceptional intelligence that forms a vital connection between Earth and Heaven. As one of the twelve signs of the zodiac, Sagittarius holds significant importance in astrology. Originally part of a larger set from the Basilica of Saint-Sernin, this relief is sometimes dated to around AD 350 due to its striking resemblance to ancient craftsmanship, rather than being attributed to the Romanesque period along with the Siren.
