Large-scale animal masks appear on some of the most famous vessels of the period, such as the Li gui; see W.Fong, The Great Bronze Age of China, New York, 1980, no.41. The style established by such important works as the Li gui probably enhanced the popularity of this motif at the time.Two related gui vessels from the reign of the third Zhou King, Kang Wang (1020-996 BC or 1005-978 BC) make it likely that the present lot was also produced during the same reign.

A large wood figure of 'Water-Moon' GuanyinProbably Qing DynastyThe deity finely carved with a gentle, contemplative expression, the hair worn in a topknot with knotted tresses falling over the shoulders, seated in rajalalitasana with right arm resting on the raised right knee, the left hand resting on the level surface to support the weight, wearing a sash tied across the left shoulder and a long dhoti secured by a sash around the waist, adorned with floral earrings, elaborate necklace, and beaded armbands. 82cm (32 2/8in) high.Footnotes:或清 木雕水月觀音像The result of a radiocarbon dating measurement test, RCD Lockinge Radiocarbon Dating Measurement Report, sample no.RCD-8178, states 95.4% probability for 1664-1953, of which 77.3% probability is for 1664-1884.據英國RCD Lockinge實驗室放射性碳定年測量報告,樣本編號RCD-8178之檢測結果表明,本拍品有95.4%之可能性制於1664年至1953年間,其中77.3%之可能性制於1664年至1884年間。Seated in the pose of 'royal ease', the deity probably depicts the Water-Moon Guanyin, an iconography derived from Tang dynasty paintings.According to the 'Lotus Sutra', Guanyin can take any form necessary to save sentient beings, and mentions thirty-three manifestations which the deity could take, of which seven were female. The figure's sensual curves however, evoke a distinctly feminine feel, and by the Ming dynasty, Guanyin was usually depicted in a feminine form.Guanyin images seated in the relaxed position of royal ease are referred to as Zizai Guanyin, literally meaning 'Guanyin at ease'. When such figures were placed in a grotto or seated on rocky platforms, they reference the Water Moon Guanyin, who sits by the water's edge contemplating the reflection of the moon in the water and recognising the illusory nature of all phenomena, gently smiles at humans who grasp for the reflection of the moon mistaking it for reality.For a wood figure of Guanyin, Tang dynasty, whose iconography may have served as prototype for the present lot, see H.Trubner, The Arts of the T'ang Dynasty, Los Angeles, 1957, no.57; see also R.L.Thorp and V.Bower, Spirit and Ritual: The Morse Collection of Ancient Chinese Art, New York, 1982, no.59.This lot is subject to the following lot symbols: †† VAT at the prevailing rate on Hammer Price and Buyer's Premium.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com
