| This terracotta kneeling archer is depicted with his hair tied in a bun on the right of his head. He is kneeling with his right knee on the ground. The figure appears to have been holding a crossbow to the right of his chest, with the right hand facing up to grip the bow's handle and the left hand facing down to hold the arm of the bow, ready to deploy. Originally painted all over, more than half of the figure's colours have faded. The paints remaining on the body gave viewers a glimpse of its original vibrant colours. This terracotta is a collection of the Emperor Qinshihuang's Mausoleum Site Museum. |
