Big Size Vintage Bronze Beauty Zhao Jun Statue from China Original Statue

About the Item

The Big Size Vintage Bronze Statue of Beauty Zhao Jun is a fascinating and culturally significant artifact. Zhao Jun, one of China's renowned Four Beauties, has been immortalized in various forms of art throughout Chinese history. A bronze statue representing her would carry deep historical and artistic value, reflecting not only the craftsmanship of the time but also the cultural importance of her story. Wang Zhaojun, also known simply as Zhao Jun, lived during the Western Han Dynasty (206 BCE – 8 CE). She is one of the "Four Beauties" of ancient China, celebrated for her stunning beauty and her role in the peace-making between the Han dynasty and the Xiongnu (a nomadic group from the northern steppes). Zhao Jun was sent as a bride to the Xiongnu chieftain Huhanye by the Han emperor to solidify peace between the two groups. Her journey and marriage were seen as a selfless act that brought stability and harmony, making her a symbol of diplomatic wisdom and national sacrifice. Zhao Jun’s story is often celebrated as a symbol of peace and the benefits of diplomatic marriages in maintaining harmony between different peoples. The statue could be seen as a tribute to the ideals of peace, unity, and sacrifice. Beyond her physical beauty, Zhao Jun is also a symbol of virtue, intelligence, and loyalty. The statue would likely embody these qualities, serving as a reminder of the values she represents. Big Size Vintage Bronze Statue of Beauty Zhao Jun is more than just a decorative item; it is a piece of Chinese history and culture encapsulated in bronze. Representing one of China’s most beloved historical figures, this statue would be a valuable addition to any collection, not just for its artistic merit but also for the rich narrative it carries. Its historical context, craftsmanship, and the cultural symbolism associated with Zhao Jun make it a treasured artifact that resonates with the values of peace, beauty, and virtue. Proper care and preservation will ensure that this statue continues to be appreciated for generations to come. Sword details: Length: 40 cm diameter: 34 cm Weight: 4.3kg Free shipping worldwide
