PLATE XXII
Model of a saddled horse standing on a flat rectangular
base ; soft white pottery with transparent, almost colourless,
glaze splashed with blue. The plum blossom ornaments on
the head-harness and the palmette-shaped pad on the nose
are characteristic T'ang decorations. The delightful modelling
of the animal needs no comment.
T'ang dynasty. H. 11-5".
In the possession of Mr. George Eumorfopoulos.
