Clay Chinese Dragon
The item i have chosen to visualy analyse for this piece of work is an ornamental Chinese Dragon made from clay.
the piece is ahighly detailed dragon sat upon a mound of rocks. in the dragons right claw there is a large crystal designed to make the dragon look more expensive.
for the main part the dragon is various shades of yellows and oranges, which shows the fact that acording to legends, dragons were meant to be able to breathe fire. the ridges on the back of the dragon, and the wings of the dragon, are gold, when coupled together with the crystal, show that dragons are made out to be majestic and rich creatures. the gold and crystal also help to represent the tale that dragons were suposedly guardians of ancient treasures.
in contrast to the majesty of the dragon, the rock it sits upon are very bland, simple and dark. these rocks alos represent that dragons were suposed to live in mountains.
the attention that has been paid to the detail of the dragon makes this item look expensive and as though it has been based on a real creature.
