EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a figure of Kui Xing, a Chinese stellar god, carved delicately out of ivory during the Ming Dynasty (1368-1644). Standing at a height of 13.7 cm, this exquisite statuette is part of a private collection and holds immense historical significance. Kui Xing is depicted in an animated pose with his right leg kicking forward, exuding energy and dynamism. His raised hand once held a writing brush, symbolizing his association with literature and knowledge. The intricate carving details on this piece highlight the craftsmanship prevalent during the 16th and 17th centuries in China. The grotesque yet intriguing features of this male deity reflect Taoist beliefs and celestial mythology. As one gazes upon this figurine, it becomes evident that every curve and line has been meticulously crafted to convey both beauty and spiritual power. Dating back to the 16th century or possibly even earlier, this sculpture offers us a glimpse into ancient Chinese artistry. Its presence evokes awe as we contemplate its journey through time – from its creation by skilled hands to being preserved within private collections for generations. Bridgeman Images has captured the essence of this remarkable artwork through eHeini Schneebeli's lens. This photograph not only preserves but also shares the magnificence of Chinese culture with audiences worldwide. It serves as a reminder that art transcends boundaries and continues to inspire admiration long after its creation.
