Chinese Wood Carving of Immortal Lu Dongbin. This carving features a barefoot and smiling monk, with a staff in his right hand, a bird in the left, and a cat (or tiger) by his side. Based on the style and subject matter, this carving is likely a depiction of Lu Dongbin, one of the Eight Immortals in Chinese mythology. Lu Dongbin is often portrayed as a wise and benevolent monk who is associated with immortality and spiritual enlightenment. The cat is a symbol of companionship and loyalty, often appearing alongside Lu Dongbin in Chinese art and literature. The wood has a reddish-brown color and a dense, fibrous grain, which are characteristic of many hardwoods used in Chinese carvings, such as mahogany or rosewood.
