EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of ancient Chinese art, titled "Quail, 600-1000 (jade)". Created by the Chinese School during the Tang Dynasty (618-907), this exquisite jade sculpture measures 4.7x6.8x3.8 cm and is currently housed in the prestigious Freer Gallery of Art at the Smithsonian Institution in the USA. The delicate craftsmanship and attention to detail are evident in this small yet striking artwork. The quail, a symbol of good fortune and prosperity in Chinese culture, is beautifully rendered with intricate carvings that bring it to life. The smooth texture of the jade adds an ethereal quality to this masterpiece. With its origins dating back over a thousand years ago, this artifact holds immense historical significance. Its provenance even includes surviving through World War II era turmoil, adding another layer of intrigue to its story. Thanks to generous philanthropist Arthur M. Sackler's gift, visitors can now marvel at this extraordinary creation within the walls of the Freer Gallery of Art. This photograph captures not only the beauty but also serves as a reminder of our rich cultural heritage and artistic achievements throughout history.
