EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite Ivory Figure of Tien Kuan, Master of Heaven, dating back to the Ming Dynasty (1368-1644). The figure represents a significant aspect of Chinese mythology, philosophy, and religion as Tian symbolizes heaven itself. Displayed at the renowned British Museum, this remarkable piece reflects the rich cultural heritage of China. The photograph captures a male figure dressed in traditional Chinese robes adorned with intricate gold detailing. The man's regal attire and crown highlight his importance and authority as the Master of Heaven. Standing tall with an air of serenity and wisdom, he embodies the essence of ancient Chinese beliefs. The craftsmanship evident in this ivory sculpture is truly awe-inspiring. Every delicate detail has been meticulously carved by skilled artisans from centuries past. From the flowing robes to the lifelike facial features, every element contributes to creating a strikingly realistic human likeness. As we gaze upon this stunning work of art through time's lens, we are transported back to fifteenth-century China—a period characterized by great artistic achievements during the Ming Dynasty.
