[Cultural Relics of Tang Dynasty] Painted Female Figurines of Tang Pottery

Tang pottery painted female figurines are painted female figurines of the Tang Dynasty. The female figurines are dressed in a bun, their faces are painted with red powder, their silkworm eyebrows are detailed, and their facial features are relatively concentrated in the center of their faces. They are slightly compact. They are dressed in long skirts, their hands are caged in front of their chests, and they are paunchy. They seem to be walking slowly. After the middle of the Tang Dynasty, especially during the Kaiyuan and Tianbao years, the fashion of taking obesity as beauty gradually formed in the society. Concubine Yang was favored by Li Longji and pushed this fashion to the extreme. This female figurine is a typical reflection of the aesthetic tendency in the prosperous Tang Dynasty.
