    Verdigris Bronze Han Style Horse Statue

    C2649

    £425

    This magnificent museum quality replica Han Dynasty (202BC - 9 AD, 25-220 AD) horse has a beautiful form and a verdigris bronze finish. It has a wonderfully characterful face that will make it a truly unique centerpiece for any room. This reproduction is likely inspired by a Han dynasty bronze horse found in the Minneapolis Institute of Art. 

    Horse art became prominent in the Han dynasty when Chinese emperor Wu (141-87 BC) became obsessed with finding the 'heavenly horse'. He sent diplomats to central Asia in search of the very best breeds. This led to the prominence of horse art and statuary in Han dynasty aristocratic tombs. These horses were used as celestial horses for transportation in the afterlife
