• Lot Description
  Ca. 206 BC - 220 AD. Han dynasty terracotta soldier figure. A reddish-brown terracotta figure of a standing soldier with elongated legs and torso, stylised facial features, and hair worn short at the front and tied up but long at the back; the arms do not survive. The Han Dynasty, which ruled between 202 BC–220 AD, brought great prosperity and stability to China, reigning over a golden age of classical Chinese civilisation during which China saw major advances including the widespread development of a monetary economy and the invention of paper, as well as much progress in the decorative arts. Good condition. Authenticated by Ralf Kotalla laboratory in Germany; report attached. Provenance: From an old British collection formed in the 1990s; Size: H:560mm / W:80mm ; 2289g
