Scientific Analysis Report: A thermoluminescence analysis report issued by Oxford Authentication on 13 October 2025, based on sample number C125p43, sets the firing date of the two samples taken between 900 and 1500 years ago, consistent with the dating above. A copy of the report accompanies this lot.China, 618-907. Standing foursquare on a rectangular pedestal, its head turned slightly left and down with ears pricked and the mouth open in a neigh, and the neck grooved for a mane. The powerful and muscular body is coated in an elegant straw glaze, suffused with distinct pale apple-green tones, while the head and legs are enlivened by rich, translucent splashes of amber.Provenance: From a private collection in Düsseldorf, Germany, and thence by descent. Condition: Overall preserved in stable condition, commensurate with age. Visible surface wear, burial accretions, soil encrustations, minor chips, hairlines, glaze loss and craquelure, signs of weathering and erosion. Old restorations including fills and retouching, consistent with excavated Tang dynasty statues of this large size. Two small holes from sampling have since been filled.Weight: 16 kg Dimensions: Length 62 cm, Height 64.5 cmAs one of the 'Six Livestock' in ancient China, the horse embodied both the highest honors and a transferable measure of wealth. During the Tang dynasty, the ownership of horse sculptures was explicitly reserved for the elite, with edicts prohibiting artisans and tradesmen from possessing them. The presence of a large and finely executed sculpture such as the present example therefore signals the elevated rank and social importance of its owner and family.The impressive physical presence of the present figure is further heightened by the depiction without harnesses, saddles, or trappings, a notable departure from most Tang horses of comparable scale. Shown unencumbered and animated with vitality, it conveys both the freedom of the celebrated Ferghana horses and the high esteem in which they were held at the Tang court.The most magnificent breed, immortalized in Chinese literature and the visual arts, was the Ferghana horse, introduced into central China from the West during the Han dynasty. These were the fabled 'celestial' or 'blood-sweating' horses, known for their speed, power, and stamina. The renowned court artist Han Gan (720-60) changed the nature of Chinese horse painting when he depicted one of Emperor Xuanzong's (r. 847-59) favorite horses, Night-Shining White (now in the collection of the Metropolitan Museum of Art), in a realistic rather than supernatural manner. This development parallels the realism of Tang arts in general, and is exemplified by the present lot.Auction result comparison:Type: Closely relatedAuction: Christie's New York, 20 September 2002, lot 257Price: USD 45,410 or approx.
