EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable pendant in the form of a quadruped, dating back to approximately 1100-900 BC. Crafted from exquisite jade by the Chinese School during the Anyang period (c. 1300-c. 1050 BCE), this fragment is a testament to ancient artistry and craftsmanship. Measuring at just 1.6x3.3x0.8 cm, this small yet intricate piece holds immense historical significance. Its delicate carving and meticulous details highlight the mastery of its creators, who lived during the Shang Dynasty (ca. 1600-ca. WWII era provenance) and Zhou Dynasty (ca. 1050-221 BCE). The mesmerizing green hue of nephrite jade adds an ethereal quality to this pendant, making it even more alluring as a piece of jewelry from ancient China's rich heritage. Displayed here in stunning clarity by Bridgeman Images, this photograph allows us to appreciate every minute detail of this extraordinary artifact housed at Freer Sackler Gallery - a precious gift from Arthur M. Sackler himself. As we gaze upon this pendant, we are transported back in time, marveling at the skillful hands that brought it into existence over three thousand years ago. It serves as a reminder of our shared human history and the enduring beauty found within ancient cultures around the world.
