EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a stunning ivory sculpture from the Ming dynasty, dating back to 1580-1644. The artwork depicts a standing group of He Xiangu and her attendant, created by the skilled hands of the Chinese School. Standing at an impressive height of 26.7 cm, this masterpiece is now part of a private collection owned by ePaul Freeman. He Xiangu, portrayed in this sculpture, is one of the Eight Immortals in Chinese mythology and folklore. As a female immortal associated with Buddhism, she exudes grace and divinity through her delicate features and elaborate hairdo adorned with exquisite jewellery. Her presence radiates serenity and wisdom as she stands alongside her loyal attendant. The intricate carving on this piece highlights the meticulous craftsmanship prevalent during the Ming dynasty. Every detail has been carefully sculpted to perfection, capturing both the essence of He Xiangu's spiritual significance as well as showcasing the artistic talent of its creator. This photograph not only preserves an important artifact from ancient China but also offers us a glimpse into their rich cultural heritage. It serves as a reminder that art transcends time and space, allowing us to appreciate and admire these masterpieces even centuries later.
