Description:

HAN (202 B.C.-220 A.D.) 漢 魏晉以前, 先人的居家生活以蓆鋪地,蓆地而坐。然而,蓆在人們落座、起身、挪動時常會移動、傾斜,為避免此類問題,古人在蓆子的四角放置鎮,用來壓蓆,蓆鎮便應運而生。現存漢代的蓆鎮多為金屬材質,體量不大,造型往往採近似柔和的半球形,避免勾劃到衣物。為保持器物的半球形輪廓,動物造形的鎮採取蜷屈、盤踞的姿勢。 熊鎮為銅胎鎏金,面部及身體毛髮刻畫清晰,間以瑪瑙和松石點綴。表情生動寫實,嘴角略微鼓起,熊齒整齊銳利,逼真卻又不失可愛。四肢孔武有力,腳掌爪形尖銳,氣勢十足。肥大而笨拙的型態卻又平衡了這樣強烈的視覺感受,從藝術角度來看,此鎮將熊的憨態與動感完美融合,呈現出漢代難得一見的審美。英國知名骨董商Eskenazi先生亦藏有與本件雷同之藏品(如圖1),僅其在尺寸上略大於本品。另一知名美國藏家安思遠先生所藏之鎏金熊(如圖2),在2015紐約佳士得拍出一驚人天價更是廣為人知。高古的鎏金動物型擺件在市場上實為少見,更何況此件鎏金熊的條件近似前面兩件名品,其珍稀程度更是不在話下。
