Tambourines player

Description The young player, part of a group that includes four other players and a dancer, is depicted sitting cross-legged on a thin square base, and holding a double vertical tambourine in front of her chest. The girl has a round face, made up of pink makeup on her cheeks and red on her mouth, painted black for her eyelashes and eyes. On the forehead a flowered inlay motif (huadian) is drawn in red. Her black hair is parted in the middle and is combed into a double-bun hairstyle (shuangji). The player wears a low-cut bodice with long, narrow sleeves, a red waistcoat, and a wide draped skirt encircled below the chest, painted white with red stripes. A long brown scarf, stuck in the belt at the left breast, passes over the shoulders and descends to the right side, then falls back onto the base of the figurine.
