Descriptif du lot

The present gu is associated with the early 'mature' style of gu from Anyang (late 13th to early 12th century BC) which all exhibit the same distinctive structure and the same decorative sequence of motifs. A very similar example is illustrated by R. W. Bagley, Shang Ritual Bronzes in the Arthur M. Sackler Collections, The Arthur M. Sackler Foundation, Washington D.C., 1987, pp. 239-41, no. 33.
