拍品專文

This figure is known as the hermit of the Snow Mountains. According to Buddhist literature, he earned this epithet by spending his previous life meditating in snow mountains. See a Ming lacquer figure also in this typical pose (which was first invented for the meditating Buddha), illustrated in Wang Shixiang, Ancient Chinese Lacquerware, Beijing 1987, p.90, fig.60 and p.198 ; compare also with a gilt bronze figure of Lohan illustrated in R-Y Lefebvre d'Argencé (ed.), Chinese, Korean and Japanese Sculpture, The Avery Brundage Collection, Asian Art Museum of San Francisco, Kodansha International ltd., Tokyo, New York and San Francisco 1974, pp.340-341, pl.182
