| Research Abstract |
This study investigates and examines images for worship, such as ‘Taoist’ statues, whose religious origins were in China, from the viewpoint of art history. In particular, this study analysed the emergence process of Taoiststatues and their development in each region during the Southern and Northern Dynasties (5th-6th centuries), which was known as the era of origin of these statues in China. On the basis of this analysis, we point out a clear association that existed in Taoist statues by comparing many works, focusing on a kind of Chinese armrest called ‘pingji’ and a kind of duster called ‘zhuwei’, which are characteristic attributes of the principal image.
