Tang Dynasty Figure of a Seated Court Lady in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, August 2023
Title: Seated court lady
Period: Tang dynasty (618–907)
Date: 8th century
Culture: China
Medium: Earthenware with tri-color (sancai) glaze
Dimensions: H. 14 3/4 in. (37.5 cm); W. 5 5/8 in. (14.3 cm); D. 6 1/16 in. (15.4 cm)
Classification: Ceramics
Credit Line: Purchase, The Vincent Astor Foundation Gift, 2010
Accession Number: 2010.120
This charming figure brings to life a leisure moment at the Tang imperial court. A plump young woman sits in a relaxed pose, a playful lapdog at her feet. Bright, clear-toned glazes, a recent innovation in ceramic technology at the time, enhance her jacket, sash, and skirts with striking colors. The hourglass-shaped stool, originally made of rattan in South Asia, points to the overseas trade and exchange during this prosperous and cosmopolitan age.
