A RARE LARGE PAINTED AND BLUE, AMBER AND GREEN-GLAZED POTTERY FIGURE OF A COURT LADY
TANG DYNASTY (AD 618-907)
A RARE LARGE PAINTED AND BLUE, AMBER AND GREEN-GLAZED POTTERY FIGURE OF A COURT LADY TANG DYNASTY (AD 618-907) The figure stands in a swaying pose on a flat, canted base. The raised right hand and the lowered left arm are concealed by the heavy sleeves of the long robe that falls to the base revealing one blue-glazed slipper and covering the other foot. The robe is glazed across the shoulders in cobalt blue, in green on the sleeves and in amber-yellow on the torso and skirt, and is incised with strong lines that depict the long folds of the cloth. The delicate features of the round, unglazed face are picked out in black pigment, with softly shaded rose-pink cheeks framed by the black-pigmented hair that is drawn up in a topknot and gathered in a net at the back of the neck. The flat base has traces of orange-red pigment. 19 3/8 in. (49.2 cm.) high, box, wood stand
