Colourful Porcelain Figurine of Guan Gong

In this figurine, Guan Gong is depicted seated in contemplation, with a tiger skin rug beneath his feet. In Chinese symbolism, the tiger represents power and martial authority. Sitting upon the tiger skin signifies mastery over fierce forces and reinforces Guan Gong’s role as a formidable general. Paired with his depiction reading the Spring and Autumn Annals, the imagery reflects the ideal of the “scholar-warrior”, balancing strength, wisdom and righteousness.
