Even Sanxingdui is a rare large, full-length portrait, this one is 104 centimeters tall.
It is rare that the standing figure has a very good figure: wide shoulders and narrow waist, shoulders, hands, hips, legs and other parts are full of beautiful muscles, and the tight vest worn highlights the good figure, plus the big back, which is really very in line with the modern standard of a good male figure.
The portrait is powerful and presumably a person who plays a unique role in the sacrificial scene.
The tendons and flesh of this figure can at least show that at that time, the ancestors of Sanxingdui still appreciated the appearance and signs of men with broad shoulders and narrow waists and full of muscles.
Some interesting details:
1. The statue has a perforation in each earlobe, and may have hung an ornament such as earrings.
2. The left hand is held in front of the chest, the thumb is upturned, and there seems to be something in the hand.
3. The short skirt is eye-catching: the skirt is decorated with cloud and thunder patterns, and the skirt seems to be decorated with tassels.
4. There is a belt around the waist, and the knot is finely knotted in front of the abdomen.
5. The portrait stands on a square pedestal, and there is a hole in the middle of the plug-in.
