Catalogue Note
Related pottery sculptures powerfully modeled in the form of a dragon from this period appear to be rare, although a very close
counterpart to the present lot is recorded. See a painted gray pottery dragon of similar size and detail, rendered in the same
recumbent posture, attributed to the Six Dynasties, from the collection of Mr. and Mrs. Edward L. Brewster, now in the Walters Art
Museum, Baltimore, acc. no. 49.2425. Compare also a Six Dynasties gilt-bronze dragon, cast in a striding stance with the
head depicted in a very similar style, from the collection of Stephen Junkunc, III, sold in these rooms, 19th March 2019, lot 116.
