The excerpt presented above is actually taken from “My Last Duchess”, a poem that was written by Robert Browning. And based on the excerpt, the one that is being symbolized by the statue of Neptune taming a sea horse is the desire of the duke to control his wife. The answer to this would be the first option. Hope this helps.
