EDITORS COMMENTS
This Funerary Sculpture of a Bactrian Camel, dating between the 7th and 8th centuries, is an exquisite example of ancient applied art from the enigmatic region of Bactria, located in present-day Afghanistan and Central Asia. The sculpture, created during the Tang Dynasty, is a masterpiece of molded earthenware with intricately modeled and applied decoration, showcasing the remarkable skill and artistry of its unknown creator. The Bactrian Camel, a two-humped camel native to Central Asia, was an essential means of transportation and a vital component of the region's economy and culture. This figurine, discovered as a funerary artifact, suggests the significance of camels in the lives of the ancient people of Bactria. The sculpture is adorned with a rich, polychrome sancai glaze, a traditional Chinese glazing technique that adds depth and vibrancy to the piece. The camel's body is expertly modeled, capturing the animal's distinctive features, such as its curved neck, long legs, and humps. The intricate decoration on the figure includes detailed patterns and motifs, adding to its visual appeal and historical significance. This rare and beautiful sculpture is now part of the permanent collection at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), where it is exhibited for visitors to appreciate and learn from the rich cultural heritage it represents. The camel figurine serves as a testament to the artistic achievements of the ancient world and the enduring influence of Central Asian art on global artistic traditions.
