A SOAPSTONE 'MYTHICAL BEAST' RECTANGULAR SEAL
The seal is surmounted by a two-horned mythical beast carved with an alert expression and mouth slightly open, it is seated on its haunches with its tail flicked around one of its back legs. The seal face is inscribed with a phrase from Yuxishixu ‘Preface to Poems: Foolish Stream’ by the Tang poet Liu Zongyuan, reading ‘poyi wenmo ziwei’ which may be translated as ‘to console myself in writing’. The stone is of a slightly varying caramel tone.
2 in. (5 cm.) high, with a silk and paper seal face cover
