In Milan's Indro Montanelli Public Gardens, Harry Rosenthal's sculpture bears the title I quattro Cavalieri dell'Apocalisse e il bianco Cavallo della Pace. The sculpture stands as an art spot in the gardens.

Four horsemen rise on bases of different heights, giving the sculpture a varied vertical arrangement. Two horses rear dramatically above their separate bases.

Another horse appears in a forward leap, while the remaining rider's horse stands still within the group. Their poses evoke conquest, war, famine, and death.

Rosenthal places a riderless white horse beside the mounted figures, showing it grazing without a base and changing the scene's direction. The riderless white horse suggests peace and hope.

The contrast between apocalyptic riders and a grazing animal gives the arrangement a religious and contemplative character. The artist Harry Rosenthal had Viennese origins.

His escape from Nazi persecution and conversion to Catholicism inform the sculpture's religious symbolism. The Italian title names both apocalypse and peace.
