Standing figure, 5th-4th century BCE

Ancient Chinese bronze figure with gold inlay, 5th-4th century BCE, now in the collection of the Minneapolis Institute of Art From the art's description on artsmia.org: "This small, finely detailed figure stands with arms held out. His curling fingers form a socket that would have held the shank of an oil lamp... Human figures in bronze were rare throughout the Shang and Western Zhou dynasties (1600–771 BCE), but several bronze figures that served as lamp standards have now been excavated from Warring States–period tombs of the late Zhou era."
