A DEHUA SEATED FIGURE OF GUANYIN
17TH CENTURY
The fgure is delicately modelled with downcast eyes and a serene expression
on her face. Her hair is swept up in a high chignon. She wears long draping
robes open at the chest to reveal a lotus-shaped pendant. She is seated in royal
ease with her right hand on her knee and her left hand holding a scroll. The
base is crisply moulded as a rocky outcrop with a slender ledge at her left side.
The reverse of the fgure is stamped with an illegible four-character seal mark.
