The man with the phoenix
This portrait of a young man features singular details, such as flames emerging from his head, a pectoral jewel made of geometric interlacing, a beard pearl shaped like a monkey's head and an animal form on his shoulder resembling an imaginary phoenix. The sculpture is covered with a black glaze with coppery reflections, marked by yellow horizontal stripes.
