The Tang Dynasty (618-907 AD) was a prosperous period that helped shape Chinese history's foundations for future centuries. This era was marked by notable technological and cultural advances, including gunpowder and printing. Among artistic advances during this period was the perfection of the sancai glaze technique, which was a prominent attribute of sculpture during this period. Sancai (tri-colored) glazing used the three glaze-colors were ochre or brown, green and clear. Glazed wares were much more costly to produce than other terracotta wares, and were therefore only reserved for the wealthiest patrons. <br><br>This Sancai-Glazed Horse would have been an incredible status symbol for its owner and many have been lost to time. This sculpture is comparable to examples held in museum collections worldwide, including the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York.

Caballo esmaltado SancaiDinastía Tang (618-63,5 x 66,04 x 22,86 cm(63,5 x 66,04 x 22,86 cm) cerámica vidriada
Procedencia
Colección privada, Washington
La dinastía Tang (618-907 d.C.) fue un periodo próspero que contribuyó a sentar las bases de la historia china de los siglos venideros. Esta época estuvo marcada por notables avances tecnológicos y culturales, como la pólvora y la imprenta. Entre los avances artísticos de este periodo destaca el perfeccionamiento de la técnica del vidriado sancai, que fue un atributo prominente de la escultura durante este periodo. El vidriado sancai (tricolor) utilizaba los tres colores del vidriado: ocre o marrón, verde y claro. La producción de objetos vidriados era mucho más costosa que la de otros objetos de terracota, por lo que sólo se reservaban a los clientes más adinerados.

Este caballo esmaltado de Sancai habría sido un símbolo de estatus increíble para su propietario y muchos se han perdido con el tiempo. Esta escultura es comparable a las que se conservan en colecciones de museos de todo el mundo, incluido el Museo Metropolitano de Arte de Nueva York.
