Chinese Tang-Revival Horse – Layered Patinated Pottery – 20th Century – SKU 743

A modern Chinese study of the Tang horse

The appeal of this pottery horse lies in its compact reinterpretation of Tang-dynasty equestrian sculpture. A bowed neck and controlled stance reference the celebrated burial figures, while the deliberately layered surface gives the body an archaeological visual vocabulary. It is, however, correctly catalogued as a 20th-century revival piece.
