The "Ink Splendor and Cultural Context: Gansu Silk Road Art Treasures Exhibition" is now on display at the National Art Museum of China in Beijing, showcasing over 240 artifacts from northwest China's Gansu Province. Among the highlights are a series of whimsical figurines that have quickly become favorites with visitors thanks to their playful charm.
The collection encompasses a rich array of historical and artistic forms, including painted pottery, bamboo slips, silk manuscripts, figurines, scrolls, and mural reproductions. Together, these works retrace the profound cultural roots of Chinese art and highlight the enduring legacy of the Silk Road. The exhibition is open to the public through August 17.
