 Renowned
Terra Cotta Warriors Return To Bowers Museum
October 1, 2011 - March 4, 2012
With
Over 150 Exceptional Chinese Works Of Art Acquired
For Use In The Afterlife By Men And Women Of Power,
Wealth And Taste. Visitors will see spectacular
recent discoveries from the Qin-era imperial tomb
of the ruthless First Emperor Qin Shihuangdi including
a chariot horse and four terra cotta warriors
one of which is the only known warrior with a
face painted green. Seldom seen outside of China
are the intricately carved miniature armies that
once guarded the tombs of Han emperors and their
aristocracy. The Tang dynasty was the height of
taste and luxury; from the royal tombs and temples
of the imperial city of Xi’an is an opulent showing
of wealth: gold, silver, and gemstones. Among
these treasures is a set of four nesting boxes
that once held Buddha’s finger bone and is still
considered one of the most holy religious relics.
