Some visual characteristics that I can see is that it obviously looks very ancient. Many spots on the face of the sculpture are wearing away causing the coloration to turn into a lighter brown as opposed to the darker brown shade that takes up the rest of the sculptures face and torso. Another interesting characteristic I noticed is how he is missing a lot of the right side of the sculpture. Maybe these peices had fell off when discovered by the artist or maybe it was even made that way. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">References:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Gift of Charles Lang Freer<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Freer Gallery of Art<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/asihttps:\/\/asia.si.edu\/object\/F1913.78\/a.si.edu\/object\/F1913.78\/\">https:\/\/asihttps:\/\/asia.si.edu\/object\/F1913.78\/a.si.edu\/object\/F1913.78\/<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-categories-list wp-block-categories-taxonomy-category wp-block-categories\">\t<li class=\"cat-item cat-item-38\"><a href=\"https:\/\/diluo.digital.conncoll.edu\/Asianart\/category\/bibliography\/\">Bibliography<\/a>\n<\/li>\n\t<li class=\"cat-item cat-item-40\"><a href=\"https:\/\/diluo.digital.conncoll.edu\/Asianart\/category\/connecticut-college\/\">Connecticut College<\/a>\n<\/li>\n\t<li class=\"cat-item cat-item-69\"><a href=\"https:\/\/diluo.digital.conncoll.edu\/Asianart\/category\/editors-pick\/\">Editor&#039;s Pick<\/a>\n<\/li>\n\t<li class=\"cat-item cat-item-19\"><a href=\"https:\/\/diluo.digital.conncoll.edu\/Asianart\/category\/essay\/\">Essay<\/a>\n<\/li>\n\t<li class=\"cat-item cat-item-37\"><a href=\"https:\/\/diluo.digital.conncoll.edu\/Asianart\/category\/exhibition\/\">Exhibition<\/a>\n<\/li>\n\t<li class=\"cat-item cat-item-18\"><a href=\"https:\/\/diluo.digital.conncoll.edu\/Asianart\/category\/image\/\">Image<\/a>\n<\/li>\n\t<li class=\"cat-item cat-item-142\"><a href=\"https:\/\/diluo.digital.conncoll.edu\/Asianart\/category\/map\/\">Map<\/a>\n<\/li>\n\t<li class=\"cat-item cat-item-1\"><a href=\"https:\/\/diluo.digital.conncoll.edu\/Asianart\/category\/uncategorized\/\">Uncategorized<\/a>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-categories-list wp-block-categories-taxonomy-category wp-block-categories\">\t<li class=\"cat-item cat-item-38\"><a href=\"https:\/\/diluo.digital.conncoll.edu\/Asianart\/category\/bibliography\/\">Bibliography<\/a>\n<\/li>\n\t<li class=\"cat-item cat-item-40\"><a href=\"https:\/\/diluo.digital.conncoll.edu\/Asianart\/category\/connecticut-college\/\">Connecticut College<\/a>\n<\/li>\n\t<li class=\"cat-item cat-item-69\"><a href=\"https:\/\/diluo.digital.conncoll.edu\/Asianart\/category\/editors-pick\/\">Editor&#039;s Pick<\/a>\n<\/li>\n\t<li class=\"cat-item cat-item-19\"><a href=\"https:\/\/diluo.digital.conncoll.edu\/Asianart\/category\/essay\/\">Essay<\/a>\n<\/li>\n\t<li class=\"cat-item cat-item-37\"><a href=\"https:\/\/diluo.digital.conncoll.edu\/Asianart\/category\/exhibition\/\">Exhibition<\/a>\n<\/li>\n\t<li class=\"cat-item cat-item-18\"><a href=\"https:\/\/diluo.digital.conncoll.edu\/Asianart\/category\/image\/\">Image<\/a>\n<\/li>\n\t<li class=\"cat-item cat-item-142\"><a href=\"https:\/\/diluo.digital.conncoll.edu\/Asianart\/category\/map\/\">Map<\/a>\n<\/li>\n\t<li class=\"cat-item cat-item-1\"><a href=\"https:\/\/diluo.digital.conncoll.edu\/Asianart\/category\/uncategorized\/\">Uncategorized<\/a>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Eddie Pistorino Label: Head and bust of a Luohan (Arhat), fragment Ming dynasty, 1368-1644ChinaIronH x W x D: 56.3 x&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":32,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[18],"tags":[27,12],"class_list":["post-2347","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-image","tag-buddhism","tag-china","wpcat-18-id"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/diluo.digital.conncoll.edu\/Asianart\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2347","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/diluo.digital.conncoll.edu\/Asianart\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/diluo.digital.conncoll.edu\/Asianart\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/diluo.digital.conncoll.edu\/Asianart\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/32"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/diluo.digital.conncoll.edu\/Asianart\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2347"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/diluo.digital.conncoll.edu\/Asianart\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2347\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":3550,"href":"https:\/\/diluo.digital.conncoll.edu\/Asianart\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2347\/revisions\/3550"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/diluo.digital.conncoll.edu\/Asianart\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2347"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/diluo.digital.conncoll.edu\/Asianart\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2347"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/diluo.digital.conncoll.edu\/Asianart\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2347"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
