Gammel kinesisk, Tang-dynastiet Terracotta-figur af en kvindelig polospiller, 27 x 34 cm med TL-test Figur
Round sculpture made of terracotta and decorated with engobes. It depicts a female polo player on horseback, galloping, with the animal captured in the middle of a jump. The human figure is dressed in loose-fitting red clothes with full sleeves; her hair is carefully combed, her hands are raised, and her cheeks and lips are highlighted. The player evidences the movement and tension of the moment, and turns her torso facing the viewer.
Under the Tang dynasty, polo was a sport played mainly by the aristocracy and especially by women, despite its roughness.
Provenance: Acquired at F. Gallery, Spain, Madrid, 2022
