This bronze guardian figure stands dynamically with feet apart, ready to confront a challenge. His robes flow out behind him, he holds a club-like weapon and his body is draped with whips. His aristocratic face is finely modeled and possesses a strong authority. A classic Ming Dynasty figure with a beautiful black patina, with green mineralization, spots of malachite on the back. The Lokapala or Four Guardians, are the protectors of the four directions. Traditionally they are seen at the entrances to temples as protectors of the doctrine from danger coming from any direction. They express the fundamental power of the faith and the dedication to protect its indomitable truth.
