Kneeling Priest

This clay sculpture titled kneeling priest has no artist tied to it. This piece comes from the Joseon period during the 18th century. The sculpture is from Korean culture and is in the Korean section of the MET museum (Gift of Abby Aldrich Rockefeller, 1942). The accession number for the piece is 42.25.7. The image is public domain and can be found via the linked provided. I enjoyed this piece for the way the clay was shaped to help the robe have a flowing design.
