Summary

Description
English: Dancer figurine from the Tomb of the King of Chu Tuolan Mountain Xuzhou Jinagsu Western Han 2nd century BCE. With her dramatic S-shaped posture and outstretched arms, the bold design of this large figurine captures the dynamic and graceful fluidity of Han dynasty dance. Her lowered head and twisting body complement the curved sleeves that flow in the air. Possibly belonging to the third king of Chu, the Tuolan Mountain tomb housed an ensemble of these unprecedented dancing figurines, inspiring images of the spectacle and entertainment enjoyed at princely courts.
