EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable stele from the Tang Dynasty in China. The stele, housed in the Xi'an Beilin Museum in Shaanxi Province, depicts a musician frozen in time. Crafted out of terracotta, this exquisite piece of art is an emblematic representation of the rich cultural heritage of ancient China. The musician portrayed on the stele is adorned in traditional attire and wears an elaborate headdress that speaks to their elevated status. With intricate detailing and delicate relief work, every aspect of this sculpture exudes elegance and grace. The forest setting depicted behind the musician adds depth to the composition, transporting viewers into a world where music and dance intertwine with nature. It evokes a sense of harmony between humanity and its surroundings. As we delve deeper into Chinese history through this photograph, we are reminded of how music played an integral role not only as entertainment but also as a means for spiritual expression during the Tang Dynasty. This image captures that essence perfectly – it encapsulates both the skillful craftsmanship involved in creating such masterpieces and offers us a glimpse into one facet of life during this vibrant period. Leonard de Selva's expert photography allows us to appreciate every minute detail present on this magnificent stele while preserving its historical significance for generations to come.
