Description
The sculptural quality of these dashing beasts is conveyed by their stances, the proud carriage of their heads, and the apparent agility of their bodies. The forceful comma-shaped tails and their jaunty tufts, as well as the double-rope patterns on the moustaches, are typical elements of Warring States period art.
