    ​When a horse gallops full speed, it looks as if it were flying in the air. So the ancient Chinese thought of a fast horse as a "heavenly steed soaring in the skies." Usually, the sculpture of a swift horse had to be set atop a floating cloud. Galloping Horse Overtaking a Flying Swallow, however, has one of its hind hoofs set on a swallow in flight, while the other legs are airborne. The horse holds its head high, with its eyes staring, its nostrils flaring and its ears up. Part of the mane is standing erect, while the tail thrown up in the air. Its body features strong, smooth muscles, and its belly is contracted as it runs. As the galloping horse overtakes the tiny swallow, the latter turns back to look at it in surprise.

    One would normally imagine that a swallow flies faster than a galloping horse. Now that the horse has overtaken the swallow, it inspires the viewer to imagine how fast the horse is running. Li Bai (701-762), one of the best-known poets of the Tang Dynasty (618-907), wrote the poem "Song of the Heavenly Horse". Two of the lines can be borrowed to describe this sculpture: "Looking back at the black swallow, / (The horse) laughs at its slowness."

    "Horse gallops the swallow" symbolizes the ancient ancestors' worship of the dragon. Due to the alternation of dynasties, in cultural exchanges, people associate the horse in life with the dragon in the myth, which not only highlights the profound heritage of Chinese traditional culture, but also implies the galloping of the cause of the dragon and horse. The art of combining reality and romance gives this sculpture a vigorous life image and a courageous momentum, symbolizing the take-off of the Chinese nation and the national spirit of never giving up.

    Expressing the speed of a horse in this way is not just to portray a fast horse, but to promote a spirit. Speed brings whirlwind, and in the whirl, it produces a spirit of emptiness and excitement, so that people transcend the real world, and generate the will to walk with the sky and let life fly.
