A stunningly lifelike statue of Empress Wu Zetian, sculpted in deep emerald jade with subtle golden veins running through the polished surface. Regal face, calm, commanding, high cheekbones, delicate lips, and piercing almond-shaped eyes. Her elaborate Tang Dynasty headdress, adorned with phoenix motifs, is intricately carved. Flowing silk robes with meticulously detailed dragon embroidery drape over her form, every fold and curve masterfully captured in stone. A soft, diffused light. #women#
