The God of War is commonly worshipped as the God of Wealth, and a tutelary deity of business in Asian culture. One of the most popular Chinese divinities honored by both sides of the law. In this meticulously sculpted mid-20th century porcelain depiction. The forceful and imposing presence of Guan Yu is draped in full armor, finely detailed from his warrior boots to the three dragons painted on his robe. He is standing erect, posed to his side on a tiger, tightly gripping his Green-Dragon White-Moon halberd while stroking his long beard. The vintage Jingdezhen 景德镇陶瓷 porcelain figure is masterfully modeled in sinuous muscular curves, beautiful and realistic features finely detailed with articulated chainlinks, floating sashes, taotie masks, and ornate cuirasses in low relief. All together in an awe-inspiring countenance that insinuates the presence of a Dharmapala, the guardian of the universal truth. Thus, the God of War is also revered in Confucianism as the God of Literature.
