Figure of a Fat Lady

Ancient Chinese, Tang Dynasty, 618 - 907 AD

Pottery

34 cm height

PROVENANCE: Private collection, Paris, France, 1970.

CONDITION: Good condition.

DESCRIPTION:

The Tang Era of Chinese history is heralded as a golden age. It witnessed the prosperity of culture, economy, diplomacy and politics under a unified government.

The emergence of the ‘Court Fat Lady’ as a popular image of Chinese identity first made its appearance under the Zhou Dynasty, which briefly interrupted the Tang Dynasty. Women were romanticised and heroised. They were liberated in all sense of the word. Previously, the taste for women, especially concubines, had steered towards slim and slight woman. The new Tang Dynasty fashion preferred the more buxom figure. Plump women of the high court were enjoying their heyday. They were represented in art and poetry and became popular in the royal household.

It is said that the most famous of Court lady, Yang Guifei, the consort of Emperor Xuanzong (r. 712-756) set the fashion for ladies of ample form. Clothing and fashions accommodated Yang’s more mature figure and for the first time, long, loose fitting robes with high necklines became court fashion accompanied by elaborate hairstyles.

El objeto decía estar en perfecto estado , intacto y en buena condición. Sin embargo estaba dañado y el silbato no funcionaba. Fue un engaño. Lamento la mala informacion

Fast delivery, object fine. However, bad carrier: please never use again DHL express as they are "DHL slow": instead of coming to my address, they put it directly to a DHL Service Point/Locker.
