Lot 40: A Reconstituted Stone Figure of a Tang Style Court Lady

A stylized standing female figure influenced by Chinese Tang Dynasty tomb sculptures. The figure is depicted with a distinctive high hairstyle or head covering and long, vertically-pleated robes that flare towards the base. The hands are held together at the midsection, appearing to hold a flat rectangular object. The sculpture is constructed from a coarse, granular material, likely reconstituted stone or cast concrete, featuring a pervasive light green moss-like patina across the entire surface.
