- Lot Description
East Asia, China, Ming Dynasty, ca. 1368 to 1644 CE. A beautiful stone panel featuring a low relief carving of a phoenix and lotus motif. The phoenix soars with a flaming tail splayed out behind him. The magnificent bird's head features a curved beak, a nicely delineated eye, as well as crest feathers and wonderful incised feathery plumage. The mythical bird is surrounded by leafy branches with flowering peonies. According to legend, the phoenix is the most beautiful of all birds, called the "feng huang," and the etymology of the name is derived from "emperor." The phoenix will only appear in times of prosperity and peace, second only in the supernatural creatures of the Chinese pantheon to the dragon. This massive panel is a lovely depiction replete with layers of symbolism! Size: 31" L x 3" W x 18.75" H (78.7 cm x 7.6 cm x 47.6 cm)
