A FINELY CAST BRONZE RITUAL WINE VESSEL, GU
LATE SHANG DYNASTY, ANYANG, 12TH-11TH CENTURY BC
The trumpet neck of the slender vessel is decorated with four elongated blades crisply cast in relief with a dissolved taotie mask on a leiwen ground that rise from a narrow band of four kui dragons with hooked beaks and upturned tails. The middle section and the spreading foot are each cast with two taotie masks divided and separated by notched flanges, the larger masks on the foot below a narrow band of four dragons with angular bodies, C-scroll ears and long snouts. The vessel has a rich, mottled patina of green and red color. Two graphs, ya X, are cast on the interior of the foot, and can be read as a clan sign.
12 in. (30.4 cm.) high
