Bronze Pegasus Collected by Minneapolis Institute of the Arts
When the envoy sent to Central Asia returned to the court, he was amazed by this unique "heavenly horse". This robust animal has a strong back and shoulders, and works very hard, sweating profusely. Emperor Wu of China (141-87 BC) was fascinated by these stories and sent diplomats and later an army to obtain these horses. His interest in these extraordinary horses, as well as the increasingly important role of horses in military operations, largely indicates the popularity of horses in art since the Han Dynasty, especially during the rule of the Wu Kingdom. Bronze horses like this are placed in exquisitely decorated noble tombs.
