| description | The bearded deity is shown seated on a clothdraped lotus throne with his right hand raised and both arms resting on a three-legged，semi-circular arm rest with tightly curved ends. His hair is drawn up under a small lotus crown，and he is fanked by two phoenixes below a third phoenix with spread wings at the top of the shaped panel that rises from the back of the tiered pedestal，and a dragon is shown in front of the tiered pedestal between the upper and middle platforms. The whole is covered in green，amber，aubergine and clear glazes . PROVENANCE Rare Art，Inc.，New York，1979. This rare tileworks fgure likely represents one of the three highest deities of the later Daoist pantheon，the Three Purities： the Sanqing- Celestial Worthy of Primordial Beginning，the Celestial Worthy of Numinous Treasure or the Celestial Worthy of the Way and its Power. Each of these three deities is represented in hanging scrolls illustrated by S. Little，S. Eichman et al.，in Taoism and the Arts of China，The Art Institute of Chicago，2000，pp. 228-30，nos. 65-67. As with the present fgure，each is bearded and shown seated with his arms resting on a curved arm rest，of the type seen on the present fgure. Of the three deities depicted，the present fgure most closely resembles the deity depicted in the frst hanging scroll，no. 65，the Celestial Worthy of Primordial Beginning. Like the present fgure，he wears a small lotus crown，is seated on a lotus throne raised on a multi-tiered dais and holds his hands in a similar position，with a pearl held in the right hand. This painting is dated to the 16th century. |
