Gansu Province Museum Feb 3 2010

The small statue of a horse is a famous image in Gansu province. It was found in the tomb of a general and represents what good war horses are like. It is depicted as balancing on one hoof on the back of a bird to show how fast it was. There is a big replica of this statue outside the airport in Lanzhou.
