A LARGE DEHUA FIGURE OF GUANYIN
19TH-20TH CENTURY
The figure is shown standing in a graceful pose on a base of layered, and swirling clouds, her body gently swayed to one side as she turns her head away. She wears long, layered robes that fall in graceful folds to the tops of the bare feet and are open at the chest to reveal a bead necklace centered by a medallion. Her hair is drawn back behind a diadem centered by a figure of Amitabha Buddha seated on a lotus base. The base is incised with the signature Shanren Chenwei (The Mountain Man Chen Wei) in regular script, followed by the impressed seal mark of Chen Wei in a square.
17 ¾ in. (45 cm.) high

Acquired in New York prior to 1990.

The ceramic sculptor Chen Wei (dates unknown) is discussed by Robert Blumenfield in Blanc de Chine, The Great Porcelain of Dehua, Berkeley, 2002, pp. 139-40, who cites a Dehua figure of Guanyin in the British Museum, London, that bears the same inscription and seal as the present piece.
