About the Item
These remarkable Chinese sculptures, dating from the Ming dynasty, are crafted in glazed terracotta and showcase the exquisite artistry and ceremonial elegance of the period. Each figure is depicted wearing long green enamelled robes, with the head modeled separately and topped by a distinctive tall, tapered hat, reflecting the hierarchical and formal attire of Ming-era officials or attendants. The figures stand on hexagonal bases, providing stability and emphasizing their presence. Despite their overall excellent condition, the sculptures exhibit some defects and evidence of old restorations, which attest to their age and historical use. The largest figure reaches a height of 43 cm, making these pieces impressive examples of Ming craftsmanship. These sculptures combine aesthetic refinement, historical significance, and cultural authenticity, making them highly desirable for collectors and institutions interested in Chinese art.
