From the prestigious British Museum's collection, this artifact beautifully represents the artistry and craftsmanship of ancient China. The figure depicts a distinguished male standing tall, adorned in traditional Ming dynasty attire. His flowing robe, intricately detailed with vibrant colors and patterns, reflects the opulence and grandeur of that era.
