EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of art from the Tang Dynasty, specifically a man on horseback. Created during the period of 700-750, this earthenware sculpture is adorned with lead-silicate glazes and intricate painted details. The Chinese School, known for its exceptional craftsmanship, skillfully crafted this masterpiece. Measuring at 39.5x11.7x34 cm, this exquisite figurine can be found in the Freer Gallery of Art at the Smithsonian Institution in the United States. Its presence adds to the rich cultural heritage preserved within these walls. The image captures a moment frozen in time - an equestrian figure confidently riding his majestic horse. The attention to detail is evident as every stroke of paint brings life to both man and beast. This artwork not only represents artistic excellence but also provides insight into ancient Chinese society and their deep connection with horses. Horses played a significant role in transportation, warfare, and leisure activities during that era. As we admire this stunning sculpture through Bridgeman Images' lens, it serves as a reminder of our shared human history and the enduring beauty that transcends time and borders.
