My colleague in skylore TrapperKeeper reminds me of these Paul Manship sculpted vases at the Accenture Building. I am looking closely at the relief figure, and trying to decide if it is Alexander the Great. The mount looks more like an ass than a Bucephalous, and there does seem to be a deer or related game slung across his back, not a lion skin which is usually associated with him. Why do I think it is Alexander the Great? Simply because the face looks like a face on a coin I own that is supposed to represent him.
If you know, tell me. Urn my gratitude. (sorry, but it had to be said)
One external urn depicts the Centaur, probably Chiron, who was teacher to a number of Greek heroes.
