Example of a Chinese terracotta figure from the Tang dynasty of a ‘Fat Lady’, dressed in a long, richly decorated robe that falls to her feet in heavy folds, enhancing her graceful figure. She has a highly detailed face, with ruby cheeks and her hair is tied up in a pretty bun. The eyes are elongated, the pointed nose, dimpled chin and sharply carved, red-painted mouth are distinctive features that mark the unique aesthetic taste of the Tang dynasty. The lady rests on a flat base with rounded edges.
