About this object
The statuette shows a sleigh being drawn by a troika of horses. In the sleigh, seated, is Napoleon with a man next to him (Alexander I?). They have a fur laprobe covering them, and only their heads with tricorn hats show. The driver has a brown beard, green coat and red laprobe. His hands are extended as if holding reins but these are missing. The three horses are in various poses of rearing. The ground is rough.
