A rarely seen Taoist real-body clay sculpture was found at Matou Mountain in ShaanXi. The sculpture was made mainly based on the body of an actual Taoist and was strengthened by wheat straw wrapped in cloth and covered with clay. It is so fragile that immediate relocation and conservation was needed. Temporary reinforcement actions were taken: cyclododecane was brushed on the sculpture and cloth was used to cover it; the base of the sculpture was replaced. The relocation was successful and exhibitory conservation work was done. This research provides an example of relocation and conservation of an extremely fragile sculpture.
