A GILT-LACQUERED BRONZE FIGURE OF KUI XING
17TH CENTURY
The god of examinations is cast with a lively expression on his face with his hair and celestial scarves billowing in the wind. In one hand he holds a brush, and in the other an ingot. He stands in his typical pose, with one foot atop a fierce winged dragon rising from tumultuous waves upon a rectangular stand supported on four ruyi-shaped feet.
21 ¼ in. (54 cm.) high
