Bactrian horse. Tang dynasty, eighth century.
This superb horse of dignity and power represents an import to China from Ferghana in
Central Asia, quite distinct from the Mongolian pony. Even the sculptors of the Parthenon
frieze did not exceed the skill of the Tang artist who made this figure, an unusually large
one over 26 inches tall, covered in the typical three colors of glaze: cream, chestnut brown,
and green. The imperial stables and pastures numbered their steeds in hundreds of thou-
sands about this time, and poets and artists celebrated them with names such as Flying
Dragons and Horses of Heaven. Some were trained to give exhibitions of dancing at the
palace.
