ANCIENT HAN DYNASTY HORSE POTTERY TOMB FIGURE
An ancient Chinese Han Dynasty hollow molded gray and terracotta pottery tomb figurine of a horse. The horse figurine is finely modeled and features hand painted details. Legs are missing. Tombs of the Han dynasty were typically furnished with model figures and other objects believed to be necessary for a safe journey to the afterlife. Historical records indicate that when important military officials died, the imperial Han court would give them elaborate funerals, including a full military cortege. It is likely that this figure was originally part of a model funerary retinue comprising soldiers and cavalrymen that would have been placed in such a tomb. Han Dynasty, circa 221 BC to 220 AD. Museum pieces. Antique Asian Oriental Pottery Ceramic Earthen Wares For Collectors.
