3D modely ARTPortrait of a Retired Townsman at The British Museum, LondonTitle Portrait of a retired townsman Artist Unknown Date Late 1600s - 1700s Medium Wood, lacquer pigment, crystal (eyes) Dimensions x Accession # JA 1885.12-27.98 Credit Given by Sir A. W. Franks The figure gazes out at us with an air of calm. His crystal eyes give him a gently human expression. Many successful townsmen, as they grew older, took Buddhist vows. Like monks they often had their heads shaven, abandoning vanty. Some continued to live busy secular lives, others went into semi-retirement to prepare spiritually for death. Townspeople believed that by making portraits such as this one, often as a memorial after death, they would preserve the success of their family. In effect the head of the household was still watching over them. náhodný výběr modelů
