Design Concept
The artwork is adorned with amber-red glazed patterns, with shallow reliefs depicting the entwined peonies and precious flower patterns from Dunhuang murals, symbolizing this radiance. Through the unique clarity of the glass, light and shadow dance, revealing the unseen aspect of the victory’s journey.
Meanwhile, a blue sparrow perches on the horse’s foreleg; it lifts its small head and meets the steed’s gaze, it seems to welcome the triumphant ruler with melodious music. The horse is not only valiant but also embodies the refined demeanor of a noble gentleman, attentively listening, with its gaze conveying humility, and its slightly parted mouth seemingly expressing gratitude.
The unique composition forms a graceful and smooth arc with the horse’s head and neck, showcasing the "three flowers" of strength and gentleness combined. This arc resembles a crown, symbolizing both high status and the benevolent heart of the ruler.
作品周身洋溢着琥珀红色琉纹,浅浮雕演绎敦煌壁画中的缠枝牡丹与宝相花纹样,作为象征。透过琉璃独有的澄澈性质,光影摇曳,旁人看不到的面向,恰恰是胜利者的足迹。
与此同时,一只蓝色小雀鸟正伫立在马腕上;它昂起小脑袋,与骏马目光相对,神色相交。似乎在用美妙的乐音欢迎王者凯旋。骏马不仅神勇,更是翩翩风度的君子侠士,它悉心倾听,眼神传递出谦和,口部微张也似乎在表达谢意。
别出心裁的构图,让骏马的头颈形成优美流畅的弧度,展现「三花」,刚柔并济,如同冠冕加身,是地位尊崇的象征,也是王者仁心的写照。
