Yes, it is an iteresting statue. Generally, there is some symbolism related to horse statue and the way the legs are portrayed. I'm not sure about a whack to the kisser.

perspective is everything isn't it when it comes to interpreting what you see?

Very interesting angle with this shot, I'd wonder what it looks like in the other shot? Never the less, it really does look like he is getting whopped haha
