EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable terracotta stele from the Tang Dynasty, depicting a musician. The artist behind this masterpiece is part of the Chinese School, and their talent shines through in every intricate detail. Preserved at the Xi'an Beilin Museum in Shaanxi Province, China, this ancient artifact takes us back to a time when music played an integral role in Chinese culture. The musician depicted on the stele is dressed in traditional attire, reflecting the fashion trends of that era. With great skill and precision, they play musical instruments that were popular during the Tang Dynasty. Bells and bianzhong (a type of chime) can be seen adorning their low-cut dress. Located within the Forest of Stone Steles, this particular stele stands out for its exquisite relief work and its ability to transport viewers into another world. It serves as a testament to both artistic prowess and historical significance. Leonard de Selva's expert photography captures all these elements flawlessly, allowing us to appreciate every nuance of this extraordinary piece without having to travel thousands of miles. This image is not only visually stunning but also offers valuable insights into Chinese history and cultural heritage.
