A SOAPSTONE CARVING OF LUOHAN    清 壽山戲獅羅漢立像


  • Dimension: Height: 9 in (22.9 cm)
  • Estimate From: $400
  • Estimate To: $800

The figure is shown standing wearing long robe, with both hands holding a mythical beast, the face with stern expression and bold head, all supported on a wooden stand. Late Qing Dynasty period.


取上等壽山石為材,石質細膩溫潤,凝練成凍,肌理細緻,綿密欲化。達摩高額肥鼻,雙目圓睜,鬍鬚及衣服褶皺線條流暢,手捧神獸,動感十足,自然灑脫,穩定莊重。整體刀工精湛,神態逼真,尤其在達摩的面部表情及衣服褶皺等細節的處理,極具功力,殊為難的。
