Heavenly Musician

KOREA; Unified Silla dynasty (668–935); Gilt bronze; H: 11.8 cm; National Museum of Korea, Seoul, South Korea
The heavenly musician wearing a jeweled fillet about piled hair sits in cross-legged ease on a cloud. She has hands poised and mouth pursed to play a flute. The ends of the stole in which she is wrapped are blown upward in the wind. The work belongs stylistically to the 8th century.
