"隋唐の美術", Osaka City Museum of Fine Arts, 1976, p.44、No.3 - 41, "隋唐の美術" by Osaka City Museum of Fine Arts, HEIBANSHA, 1978, picture 292
Lot 104 is a Buddha head that brings you the youthfulness and energetic of the greatest period of Tang Dynasty, although it is not possible to identify as it is only the head. The face with a gentle expression and the vivid plump cheeks make you feel lively. Since the head of the Buddha has words from the 13th year of the Taisho era on the neck, it is probable that it was commissioned to Japan during the Taisho era. In addition, a character that seems to be a "戌 (which should be the meaning of “the year of dog”)" can be seen near the top of the head. It's interesting what this represents, whether it's the direction or the spell. This Buddha head has a record of being exhibited in "Chinese Art Exhibition Series 3" at the Osaka City Museum in 1976, and is also included in " Tang and Sui Dynasty Art" by Heibonsha. The Tang dynasty (618-907) was the most glamorous among other dynasties, and advanced culture was introduced into Japan at that time. From the early Tang dynasty to the greatest period of Tang dynasty, many excellent works in the history of Chinese art were produced in Buddhist art, especially in sculpture. Many styles of this period can be seen in Japanese Tenpei sculpture. "
