Plato's Horses Print

A nice history of a philosopher from past gave me the idea of this painting. The charioteer of the human soul drives a pair, and secondly one of the horses is noble and of noble breed, but the other quite the opposite in breed and character. The Charioteer represents intellect, reason, or the part of the soul that must guide the soul to truth; one horse represents rational or moral impulse or the positive part of passionate nature (e.g., righteous indignation); while the other represents the soul's irrational passions, appetites, or concupiscent nature. The Charioteer directs the entire chariot/soul, trying to stop the horses from going different ways, and to proceed towards enlightenment. Therefore in our case the driving is necessarily difficult and troublesome Plato explain how our brain and body speak. Our fillings control us, and we should meet them to understand who and what we are !!!
