Bronze Standing FigureThe bronze standing figure, 2.62 meters high with a 0.8-meter foundation, is the largest bronze masterpiece of ancient China ever discovered. The bronze figure wears a lotus-shaped crown carved with cloud and thunder patterns. It has a skinny face, two big eyes, a high nose bridge and a wide mouth. A small hole is pierced on each of its ears for hanging ear rings. The figure wears a serious but peaceful expression, its eyes shining with profound wisdom and its thin mouth lips betraying its eloquent personality.
