Kirjallisuus

Bamboo carvings of the Immortal Liu Hai and his three-legged toad were popular throughout the Ming and Qing dynasties, and the present lot appears to have been carved after earlier Ming dynasty prototypes. See a bamboo carving of Liu Hai and Toad, late Ming dynasty, illustrated by S.Kwan, Ming and Qing Bamboo, Hong Kong, 2000, pp.162-163. Later bamboo carvings of Liu Hai, Kangxi to Yongzheng periods are also illustrated in Ibid., p.293, where the author notes that 'smaller toads were common on bamboo carvings with the same subject matter during the late Kangxi and Yongzheng periods'.

Muut tiedot
