South China 18th /19th Century A Massive Bronze Rain Drum
Finely cast with geometric linear decoration and the top applied with four pairs of frogs, each carrying a partner on its back as if captured in the act of procreation, and a star symbol in the center, the sides with pairs of loop handles and a waisted base. The ‘star’ on the tympan has twelve rays. A procession of two elephants and two snails in relief decending down on one side.
Frogs indicate wholesome environment – a source of human wellbeing. They are used to call rain to ensure a bountiful crop.
