DescriptionDone in a reddish brown color, Lohan is dressed in robes and holds a carved staff in one hand and a piece of fruit in the other. A crane or heron stands to the right of him on one leg. The base--out of the same wood has leaves carved in the front. He wears a bulbous hat and his hair beard and moustache are long and flow like water down his face and shoulders. Two of the same kind of fruit (peaches?) are on his belt on the reverse side of the sculpture. On the reverse side of the base is etched the word "China".On View
