拍品描述
A RARE AND EXPRESSIVE POLYCHROME WOOD FIGURE OF A GUARDIAN, LATE KAMAKURA TO MUROMACHI

Japan, 14th-16th century, late Kamakura period (1185-1333) to Muromachi period (1338-1573)

Finely carved and painted with polychrome pigments, attractively worn, depicting a ferocious guardian turning his head, holding his left hand out in a dramatic pose with his long sleeves draping down. Wearing a collar, a temple hat, and voluminous robes tied at the waist beneath his rotund stomach. The guardian’s face bearing a fierce expression with furrowed brows, a scraggly beard made of horsehair, and bloodshot eyes with dark pupils, gold and brown pupils, and covered by clear rock crystal painted red on the corners.

HEIGHT 49.5 cm

Condition: Good condition with wear commensurate with age. Wear, cracks, chips, small losses, flaking, old repairs, and the right hand restored.
Provenance: From a Dutch private collection.

The sturdy vigilance of this sculpture reflects the Kamakura-period feeling for lifelike movement and expression.

Museum comparison:
Compare a closely related polychrome wood figure, bearing similar expression and dynamism, described as a Gushojin and dated to the Kamakura period, in The Metropolitan Museum of Art (The MET), New York, accession no. 1975.268.700a–c.
