Tang Dynasty
Modelled standing foursquare on a rectangular base, the long neck gracefully arched, and the head turned slightly to one side, the mouth closed beneath prominent nostrils and alert eyes, naturalistically rendered with a thickly textured mane extending from the crown along the neck and chest, with similarly textured hair around the upper legs and the two characteristic humps, the body covered in a pale cream-colored glaze, the saddle cloth delineated by incised and moulded lines.
16 7/8in (42.8cm) high

The Tang dynasty marked one of the most cosmopolitan periods in Chinese history, when the empire embraced and absorbed artistic and cultural influences from beyond its borders. The flourishing trade along the Silk Road introduced new ideas, materials, and artistic traditions, fostering an unprecedented spirit of exchange. Reflecting the vast reach of these commercial networks, the two-humped Bactrian camel, as represented by the present lot, became the preferred beast of burden for overland caravans. Better adapted to the harsh terrain and extreme climates of Central Asia than its single-humped Arabian counterpart, the Bactrian camel was capable of carrying heavier loads over greater distances and thus played a vital role in facilitating long-distance trade between China and the West.
The results of the thermoluminescence testing are consistent with the suggested dating of this lot, Oxford Authentication sample No. C122c84 and C122c85, 2 March 2022.
