A RARE LARGE PAINTED RED POTTERY FIGURE OF A COURT LADY HOLDING A BIRD TANG DYNASTY The imposing figure well modeled with body gracefully swayed to one side, delicately holding a bird with raised wings and tail in her hands, her layered robes blousoned at the sides beneath the crisply draped sleeves and gathered around the hips by a black belt finely molded at the back with plaques and the tucked-under end which loops outwards from the body, the outer robe slit at the sides to show the skirt of the under-robe and the tips of her pointed shoes incised with fine striations, perhaps in imitation of woven slippers, her full face modeled with small features set in a sweet expression with mouth slightly open, her hair drawn up and forward from the back in a roll which frames the ears on the sides and is topped by pendent double loops just above the forehead, with extensive white slip and traces of black, orangy-red, red and pink pigment remaining 22¼in. (56.5cm.) high
