During the Han (206 BC-AD 220) and Tang (AD 618-907) dynasties, terra cotta sculptures were placed in elaborate tombs to protect and to serve the spirit of the deceased. These fascinating sculptures took the form of soldiers, courtiers, musicians, merchants, attendants, court officials, and guardians. Animals were depicted as well, including horses, rams, boars, dogs and camels. This work features 75 Chinese tomb sculptures from the collection of Anthony Solomon, which includes a rich selection of 6th-century pieces and is noteworthy for its focus on unglazed, cold-painted sculptures. The book provides an overview of China's wide variety of ceramic tomb sculptures, their place in Chinese material culture, and the influences of Silk Route trade that they reveal.
