China - Maid holding a fan - Tang Dynasty - Pottery Maid Tang Dynasty (618-907) Size: 25cm In the Tang Dynasty of China, a woman's plump figure was a symbol of beauty.

She wore a loose robe and held a fan in her hand, projecting a confident stance. She styled her hair into a high, fluffy bun with the hair on both sides framing her face, a popular hairstyle in the late Tang Dynasty. This work shows the realistic style of Chinese Tang Dynasty art and shows us a specific picture of the free life of ladies in China's Tang Dynasty.
