Danseuse

Chine

On view at The Met Fifth Avenue in Gallery 207

Exemple par excellence de la sculpture chinoise ancienne, cette figurine en céramique démontre le talent de l’artiste, qui a su transmettre une impression de mouvement à un objet inanimé. Le sculpteur a conféré une indéniable force vitale à la danseuse, saisissant son geste à l’instant où elle relève une manche et s’incline doucement en pliant les genoux.
