Among artistic advances during this period was the perfection of the sancai glaze technique, which was a prominent attribute of sculpture during this period.

Die Tang-Dynastie (618-907 n. Chr.) war eine blühende kulturelle Periode, die die Grundlagen der chinesischen Geschichte für die kommenden Jahrhunderte mitgestaltete. Diese Epoche war von bemerkenswerten technologischen und kulturellen Fortschritten geprägt, darunter Schießpulver und Buchdruck. Zu den künstlerischen Fortschritten dieser Epoche gehörte die Perfektionierung der Sancai-Glasurtechnik, die ein herausragendes Merkmal der Bildhauerei dieser Zeit war. Sancai-Glasur (dreifarbige Glasur); die drei verwendeten Glasurfarben waren ocker oder braun, grün und klar. Glasierte Waren waren in der Herstellung viel teurer als andere Terrakotta-Waren und daher nur den reichsten Kunden vorbehalten.

Der hier angebotene glasierte Erdgeist von Sancai stellt einen "Zhenmushou" dar. Dabei handelt es sich um mythische Mischwesen, deren Körper eine Kombination aus Hunden, Löwen, Wildschweinen und anderen Tieren sind. Diese wild aussehenden Bestien bewachten paarweise den Eingang von Gräbern der Tang-Dynastie.
