A large Dehua figure of Guanyin

Fujian Dehua and Da Ming Wanli nianzhi seal marks, 19th century
The impressive figure captured holding a basket of fish and supported by a network of lotus pads and blossoms emerging from stylized waves, her high chignon set with an Amitabha crown framing her downcast eyes and full cheeks set off by plaited locks falling to each side of a delicate beaded necklace resting on her bare chest framed by heavy robes falling in folds over her elegant frame, reversed by two seals.
20in (50.8cm) high

Footnotes
