EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable artifact from ancient China, known as the Dagger-axe. Created during the Anyang period (c. 1300-c. 1050 BCE), this bronze weapon is adorned with exquisite turquoise inlay and features a blade made of precious jade (nephrite). Currently housed at the Freer Gallery of Art, Smithsonian Institution in the USA, this masterpiece was generously gifted by Arthur M. Sackler. The Dagger-axe holds immense historical significance as it represents the craftsmanship and artistic prowess of the Chinese School during that era. Its intricate design and meticulous detailing reflect the cultural sophistication prevalent in Shang Dynasty China (ca. 1600-ca. 1050 BCE). Beyond its functional purpose as a weapon, this ceremonial object symbolizes power and prestige within ancient Chinese society. The use of jade for its blade further emphasizes its importance, as jade held great spiritual value to the people of that time. With an intriguing provenance dating back to WWII era, this extraordinary artifact has survived centuries to tell us stories about ancient civilizations and their rich heritage. Through this print captured by Bridgeman Images, viewers are transported into a world where artistry meets warfare; where beauty intertwines with functionality; where history comes alive through tangible relics like the Dagger-axe from Anyang period China.
