Kyochozo statue

Japanese: 夾紵像 - きょうちょぞう
Kyochozo statue


[China, Korea]
The Jiashu technique probably began in China, and there are various remains of vessels and tableware from the Han Dynasty, such as the Jiashu coffin from the Western Han Dynasty excavated in Yanggaoxian, Shanxi Province, and the Jiashu ear cup from the 21st year of the Jianwu era in the Eastern Han Dynasty (45) excavated in Lelang. The first documented appearance of Jiashu statues was before 395 in the Eastern Jin Dynasty, when five Jiashu Xing statues were made at Zhaoyin Temple (Fayuan Zhulin, etc.). There are many documents that report on the making of statues after that, and in 628 during the Tang Dynasty, six life-size Jiashu statues of Emperor Gaozu were made at Longtian Temple on Mount Zhongnan (Fayuan Zhulin).
