Pottery Horse sculpture, Han Dynasty, 'Green Glazed Howling Horse'

This is a duplication of Green Glazed Horse made in Han Dynasty (B.C.206~A.D.220). The whole body of this horse is glazed in graceful green; the vigorous horse lifts its left front leg, wears tassel on the head, and howls to the sky.

But it also spread the image of horse into Chinese artworks representing the adoration of strength among the Chinese.
