<p>[QUOTE=&quot;journeymagazine, post: 6704271, member: 84&quot;]I did a google translation &amp; it came up with this:</p><p><br /></p><p>IMPORTANT BRONZE SCULPTURE DEPICTING A DIGNITARY AND A DRAGON CHINA Depicting a dignitary standing on a dragon holding a ruyi scepter in one hand. He is richly dressed and wears a headdress decorated with dragons fighting for the sacred pearl. Traces of polychromy (wear)</p><p><br /></p><p>BUT, it says it&#039;s Height is 80cm which comes out to 31&quot; - so I must have a copy? I think it&#039;s brass too, not bronze - is there a way to tell the difference?</p><p>And if the original is a &quot;Important Sculpture Depicting a Dignitary and a Dragon&quot; and this is a copy of it, then maybe the signature shows it was done by a known artist? (My thinking is it&#039;s by a known artist because the casting on mine was done so well + if it was a important piece they wouldn&#039;t let an unknown artist make a copy with their blessing would they?)[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
