EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable artifact from ancient China, specifically a Garment hook dating back to 300-200 BC. Crafted with exquisite skill and attention to detail, this bronze piece is adorned with gilding, adding an element of opulence to its already impressive design. The Chinese School of the 4th-3rd century BC was responsible for creating this masterpiece, which measures approximately 15.9x6.3x4 cm in size. Its dimensions make it a truly striking object that demands admiration. With its intricate casting and delicate inlay work, this garment hook represents the exceptional metalwork craftsmanship prevalent during the Eastern Zhou Dynasty (770-221 BCE) and Western Han Dynasty (206 BCE - 9 CE). It serves as a testament to the rich artistic heritage of ancient China. Having survived through centuries of history, this artifact also has an intriguing provenance from the World War II era. The print captures not only its beauty but also its historical significance. Presented by Bridgeman Images and part of the collection at Freer Sackler Gallery, this image offers viewers an opportunity to appreciate both the aesthetics and cultural value of this extraordinary piece. A generous gift from Arthur M. Sackler further enhances our understanding and appreciation for ancient Chinese artistry.
