Stoneware figure of Budai ("Laughing Buddha"), Chinese, Ming dynasty, 1486. The Buddha is glazed in the sanca (three colours) palette developed in the Tang dynasty (618-906) and which reappeared in the Ming period (1368-1644). The fat, smiling monk Budai is sometimes regarded as incarnation of the Future Buddha who followed Shakyamuni. OA 1937.1-13.1
