EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable seal in the form of a qilin, dating back to the 15th-17th century during China's Ming Dynasty. Crafted from intricately carved ivory, this exquisite piece measures 5.8x7 cm and is currently held in a private collection. The qilin depicted here is a mythical creature deeply rooted in Chinese folklore, symbolizing longevity and good government. With its beast-like appearance resembling that of a lion, this ferocious creature exudes power and strength. Its crouching position and bulging eyes add an element of intensity to its presence. The level of detail achieved through the carving process is truly impressive. Every curve and contour has been meticulously crafted to bring out the essence of this legendary creature. The qilin's teeth are prominently displayed as it sits majestically on its hind legs. Capturing both grace and fierceness simultaneously, this image evokes curiosity about ancient Chinese mythology while showcasing the exceptional artistic skills prevalent during the Ming Dynasty. Photographed by eHeini Schneebeli with copyright-free access granted due to its age, this stunning print from Bridgeman Images allows us to appreciate not only the beauty but also the cultural significance behind this extraordinary work of art.
