拍品描述
A BOXWOOD FIGURE OF AN EMACIATED LUOHAN, QING DYNASTY

China, 18th-19th century. The ascetic arhat seated atop a craggy crock with pine branches carved in openwork, both hands resting on his raised right knee, his left leg crossed underneath. The skeletal rib cage and his woolen trousers are neatly detailed. His nearly balding head is elongated with a characteristic protuberance at the forehead above deeply incised wrinkles. He is looking downward with a pensive expression, his gaunt face with a broad nose, slightly raised brows, thin lips, and curly beard.

Expertly carved from a select piece of boxwood, showcasing the fine, natural grain lines in the smooth, polished surface.

Provenance: From an old private collection in France.
Condition: Very good condition with minor wear and natural imperfections including expected age cracks, the back of the neck with a minute nick.

Weight: 130 g
Dimensions: Height 15.2 cm

Literature comparison:
Compare a similarly posed carved wood ascetic, 11.2 cm high, dated 18th-19th century, in the National Museum of Asian Art, Smithsonian Institution, accession number S2012.9.4412.
