拍品描述 翻译
明或以後 銅鎏金真武大帝 cast in generous proportions, the figure seated mightily with legs bent and both hands rested on knee and thigh, he wears an armour beneath his full robe draping naturally, the front of his robe featuring a ferocious coiling dragon underneath a studded belt, the hems further carved and etched with details, his face with authoritative expression, a long wispy beard flanked by long pendulous ears, hair neatly combed back to a pointed end falling below the waist, with traces of black pigment

(34.5cm high; 4.5kg)

Qty: (1)

Footnote: Note: Zhenwu was an important Daoist and Buddhist symbol due to his identity as a warrior god and also as the protector of the North, an area at constant risk of invasion from foreigners and the Demon King. He was known as Supreme Emperor of the Dark Heaven and the Perfected Warrior. Ming emperors held him in very high esteem. The Yongle emperor attributed his success in the civil war to Zhenwu who was the subject of a state cult as protector of the Ming Dynasty and Yongle famously credited him with enabling him to seize the throne. From 1412 onwards, the Yongle emperor commissioned a series of temples and shrines to be built on the highest peaks in the Mount Wudang area. The Yongle emperor built Zijincheng or Forbidden City at the top of Mount Wudan and in 1416 installed an image of Zhenwu of larger dimensions but similar in appearance to this bronze in the Golden Hall. There are various theories and stories about Zhenwu's appearance. When the Emperor commissioned a figure of Zhenwu, the artist questioned how Zhenwu might look, Yongle famously quipped, 'Look at me'. He had recently risen from a bath, so with bare feet, wet, slicked black hair and a relaxed pose, he modelled for the sculptor, creating what was to become the known and popular image and pose of the hero. Another theory is that Zhenwu adopted a relaxed way to dress his hair and robes whilst in a spiritual retreat on Mount Wudang in Hebei Province. Other theories include that upon accepting his appointment as Emperor of Heaven he had been in a state of partial dress, combing his hair. After the acceptance, he found he could not put his hair up, realising that his present appearance was now unchangeable. This is how the depiction of Zhenwu tends to be recognisable, particularly with his long hair flowing down his back and bare feet. His pose is relaxed, yet imposing, with one hand resting open on his knee, the other hand facing down, at the same time regal yet not threatening. His robes, opening up at the chest, reveal his armour, a nod to his military past. His celestial scarf flows over his shoulders. He is often accompanied by a dragon and a snake around his feet, absent in this depiction. This particular pose became popular amongst later depictions of other gods such as Guandi, the God of War.
