The Parthenon Frieze. Block S V

The first horseman (12) at the left is not preserved at all. The second (13), with well built body nude, turns his beautiful head to look back. Here the second group ends. The third horseman (14) coincides exactly with the join between blocks V and VI. He must have worn a short chiton, belted, and felt boots, as do the others of the third group.
