[BUNJANG] Celadon Porcelain Auspicious Beast / 청자상서로운짐승. 이벤트
Its limbs are gathered and bent towards the front, with claws detailed with distinct toe markings. The back features simplified mane lines, and the sculpting technique is antique and concise.
The base is flat, unglazed, revealing the clay body. The clay itself is coarse and loose, showing natural earth absorption and aging marks, indicative of the original firing process in a wood-fired kiln.
Historically referred to as a 'Bishia' (wall-warding beast), it is a fusion of lion and auspicious beast imagery. Ancient people believed it protected homes, repelled evil spirits, guarded peace, and deterred ghosts and goblins. It served as a吉祥 (auspicious) decorative item, either buried in noble tombs during the Wei-Jin period or placed as a display on scholars' desks.
A similar form with a socket on the back exists, identified as a lion-shaped candlestick. This particular piece lacks the socket and is purely a decorative ceramic sculpture of an auspicious beast for display and appreciation.
청유 쪼그려 앉은 상서로운 짐승 규칙적인 쪼그려 앉은 자세를 하고 있으며, 양쪽 귀는 곧게 서 있고, 얼굴은 굽은 선으로 눈썹뼈를 윤곽 짓고 검은 재료를 박아 눈을 돋보이게 하여, 순박함과 위엄을 함께 지니고 있습니다. 사지는 몸 앞쪽으로 모아 굽혀 두고, 발톱 부분에는 발가락을 나눈 무늬를 새겼으며, 등에는 갈기의 선을 간략하게 새겼고, 빚는 손기술은 고풍스럽고 간결합니다. 평저에 유약이 없고 태토가 드러나 있으며, 태질은 거칠고 느슨하고 자연스러운 흙 스며듦과 노화 흔적이 남아 있어, 당시 장작가마에서 소성한 원생 바닥 다리 공예입니다.
옛말로는 벽사라 불렸으며, 사자와 상서로운 짐승의 형상을 융합한 것으로, 옛사람들은 집을 지키고 사악한 기운을 물리치며 평안을 수호하고 귀신과 도깨비를 물리친다고 여겼습니다. 이는 위진 시대 귀족의 무덤에 부장되거나 문인의 책상 진열에 놓이는 길상 장식품입니다.같은 형식의 등 부분에 꽂는 관이 있는 동일한 기형은 사자형 촛대이며, 이 작품은 꽂는 관이 없고 순전히 진열용으로 장식하고 감상하는 상서로운 짐승 도자 조소입니다.
