Catawiki disclaimer: This piece has been dated based on style and patina. No further tests, such as, a TL test, an analysis of pigments or radiography scans have been conducted to check the integrity of the piece.
This pottery figure depicts a 'fat lady' in a relaxed pose, wearing a long, loose robe. Her curvaceous body and swayed posture reflect the aesthetic ideals of the Tang Dynasty, while her facial features, framed by an elaborate coiffure, exhibit traces of original pigments, adding to the figure's lifelike appearance.
Primarily crafted from earthenware, Fat Ladies figures were often painted in vibrant colours, showcasing intricate details such as elaborate hairstyles, headdresses, and ornate clothing. They were frequently utilized as tomb guardians or burial offerings, intended to accompany the deceased into the afterlife and provide protection or companionship. The exaggerated physiques of these figures are believed to symbolize ideals of beauty, prosperity, and fertility prevalent in Tang Dynasty society.
