Description:
A pair of Chinese horses, crafted in the style of the late Ming Dynasty (15th-16th century), with moulded decoration on rectangular hollow bases. The horses exhibit distinct slippage and remnants of paint, showing the passage of time and original craftsmanship. One piece retains a portion of tristimulus glaze, indicative of traditional glazing techniques from the period. These sculptures reflect the vibrant artistry of the Ming era and were likely designed for decorative or ceremonial purposes. The horse motif was a popular subject in Chinese art, symbolizing strength and nobility. Each horse stands at 14.25" high.
