A BRONZE FIGURE OF WENCHANG
China, Ming dynasty, 16th-17th century



The figure laying on a square section base with a wavy lower edge, dressed in a large robe, the hands joined to hold the hu tablet, on the head an exuberant headdress decorated on the front with stylized relief motifs.

33 cm high

Provenance: Fabrizio Savi collection, acquired in the early 2000s.
Wenchang is a Daoist divinity, protector of the arts and culture. Its usual attributes are the headdress in which appears the mountain with three peaks that was thought to house the immortals, flanked by the sun and the moon, the voluminous dress and, as in this statuette, the hu tablet, an instrument used in Chinese rituals since very ancient times.
