A copy of the report, issued by Oxford Authentication, accompanies this lot.Weight: 5.0 kgDimensions: Height 59.5 cmThe Tang dynasty is undoubtedly one of the most artistically exciting periods in China's long history. The arts are characterized by their diversity, cosmopolitan nature of their design, and by the high technical skill employed in their manufacture as the present pottery example amply demonstrates. In the first half of this dynasty, up to the An Lushan rebellion of 756, the level of luxury enjoyed by the court and the Tang elite ensured the production of a wide range of goods of the highest quality. China prospered as a result of trade with the west along the famous Silk Road, and camels became increasingly important for the transport of wares, since these impressive animals could carry heavy loads over long distances, surviving several days without water. As their large and broad feet did not sink easily into the sand, they became known as ‘the ships of the desert’. Many camels were imported from the states of the Tarim basin, Eastern Turkmenistan, and Mongolia, and are known as Bactrian camels. The Tang civil servants created a special office to supervise their breeding and services. It seems that no pottery examples showing Chinese riders have yet been excavated. Perhaps only these Central Asian foreigners were able to tame and guide the camels.Handsome, imposing and exotic camels such as the present lot are of great scholarly importance as well as being highly decorative. Much of the evidence of Tang dynasty life comes from archaeological pieces from tomb excavations which bear witness to fear of death as well as a desire to recreate the lifestyle and comforts experienced in this life. Impressive beasts such as this camel, as well as horses and other figures including attendants, officials and servants, were therefore required to accompany the deceased on his journey in the afterlife. Examples of Tang dynasty camels, both unglazed and with sancai glaze, are in important museum collections including the British Museum, Musee Guimet, and the Metropolitan Museum of Art.Literature comparison: For a comparable figure of a camel with Central Asian rider see Hao Qian, et al., Out of China's Earth: Archaeological Discoveries in the People's Republic of China, Beijing 1981, fig.241.
