The horse was important to the Emperors and elite members of society of the Tang dynasty a dynasty of prosperity, military expansion and artistic achievement. As sculpture, they have timeless appeal, their stylised arched necks, pricked ears and heavy torsos exude confidence, distinction and charm. The breed is believed to be the famous and almost mythical Ferghana horse, known as Tian Ma, or ‘heavenly horse,’ one of China’s earliest major imports originating in the Dayuan area of Central Asia. Such animals were the reserve of the elite and as such they required models of them to act as substitutes in the afterlife. The Han Emperor, Wudi, wrote a poem on the horses, such was their fame:‘The heavenly horses have arrive from the Western frontier. Having travelled 10,000 li, they arrive with great virtueWith loyal spirit, they defeat foreign nations. And crossing the deserts all barbarians succumb in their wake!’These horses were larger, faster and stronger than any horse in China and they finally became symbols of power and prestige. With careful training and masterful training, these horses soon became the favoured breed in China. At that time in China, the more horses you owned the higher your status. The terracotta statues of horses found in tombs have flaring nostrils, pricked ears, powerful legs and strong necks. Probably these statues were the first to depict the Ferghana horse in Chinese art.
