EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite roundel, dating from the 6th to 8th centuries, showcases a powerful and majestic boss figure seated on a throne, surrounded by intricate floral and geometric patterns. The central focus of the composition, however, is the regal feline, possibly a leopard, perched gracefully at the figure's side. The lifelike representation of the animal's muscular form and detailed markings suggest the skillful hand of a master craftsman. Originating from Central Asia, this roundel is a testament to the rich artistic heritage of the Greater Iran region during the early medieval period. The use of bronze as the primary medium for this hand-carved sculpture adds to its historical significance, as metalworking was a highly valued skill during this time. The roundel's intricate design and intricate details demonstrate the advanced level of artistic technique and craftsmanship that was prevalent during this period. Its discovery and preservation are a reminder of the cultural exchange and artistic traditions that flourished in Central Asia during the 6th to 8th centuries. This roundel is now part of the esteemed collection of the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), where it continues to inspire and captivate visitors from around the world. Its mysterious origins only add to its allure, leaving us to wonder about the stories and legends that may be attached to this ancient work of art.
