About the Item
Each horse is painted differently, one is in red and stands to the left grazing, another is mottled in yellow and brown and stands alert in the centre while the third in an orange, iron-red is galloping towards the others, its head turned to look behind it. In the foreground is blue rockwork with pink cherry blossom forth.
Dimensions: Stand: 14 1/4 inches x 10.3/4 inches; Tureen: 13 1/2 inches 8 inches tall x 8 inches wide; Overall: 8 1/2 inches
The horses depicted here could be three of the Eight Horses of Mu Wang, The. Mu Wang was an Emperor of the Chou dynasty who traveled around his kingdom in a chariot drawn by eight horses. He visited the Goddess, Hsi Wang Mu, in her western garden, where grew the tree which bore the Peach of Immortality. The eight horses occur in painted decoration, especially relaxing from their day's labours.
