Bronze Chinese Horse Statue
A bronze ornament inspired by the 2nd century Chinese sculpture known as The Flying Horse of Gansu.
This replica is cast in bronze, and is faithful to the original. The Flying Horse, also known as Galloping Horse Treading on a Flying Swallow, is an extraordinary example of Chinese craftsmanship. The weight of the horse is perfectly balanced on one single foot.
The original bronze sculpture was discovered by locals digging an air-raid shelter in 1969 along with hundreds of other bronzes in the tomb of an army general from the Han Dynasty (AD 25-220) in Leitai, Wuwei County in the Gansu Province. The horse is now housed at the Gansu Provincial Museum, and is forbidden to be removed from mainland China.
A majestic ornament celebrating a fascinating archaeological find.
