EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable pendant in the form of a fish, believed to be one of a pair. Originating from the Anyang period in ancient China, this exquisite piece is estimated to have been reworked from a bracelet dating back to approximately 1300-1050 BC. Crafted meticulously from jade and nephrite, it exemplifies the exceptional artistry and skill of Chinese artisans during that era. The intricate carving on this pendant reflects the rich cultural heritage of the Shang Dynasty (c. 1600-c. WWII era provenance). The delicate details bring this aquatic creature to life, capturing its graceful movement and natural beauty. As we gaze upon this work of art, we are transported back in time, marveling at how such craftsmanship has endured through centuries. This pendant not only serves as an adornment but also symbolizes deeper meanings within Chinese culture. Fish have long been associated with good fortune and abundance due to their ability to swim freely through water – representing wealth and prosperity. Thanks to Bridgeman Images' expertise in capturing fine art masterpieces like these, we can now appreciate every intricacy and nuance present in this stunning pendant. It reminds us of our connection with nature's wonders while honoring the artistic legacy left behind by ancient civilizations like China's Anyang period.
