EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a stunning Garment hook (daigou) from the 1st century BC-3rd century CE, created by the Chinese School during the Han dynasty. Crafted with intricate detail, this bronze hook is adorned with gold, silver, and turquoise inlay, adding a touch of opulence to its design. Measuring at 12.6x2.5x2.5 cm (4 15/16 x 1 x 1 in), this ancient artifact holds immense historical significance. Its delicate craftsmanship reflects the mastery of metalwork during that era and offers us a glimpse into the artistic sensibilities of ancient China. The daigou's elegant curves and ornate embellishments make it an exquisite example of Han dynasty artistry. The combination of precious metals and vibrant turquoise creates a striking contrast against the rich bronze backdrop, enhancing its visual appeal. With its provenance dating back to World War II era, this garment hook has traversed through time and witnessed significant moments in history before finding its place at Freer Sackler Gallery as part of Arthur M. Sackler's generous gift. Bridgeman Images captures every intricate detail in this photo print, allowing viewers to appreciate not only the beauty but also the cultural significance behind this remarkable piece of art from ancient China's past.
