Mysterious Spirits, Strange Beasts, Earthly Delights: Early Chinese Art from the Arlene and Harold Schnitzer Collection


2005

The exhibit features artifacts from one of the most compelling periods in China's early history, the Warring States and Qin-Han eras, which comprised a seven-century span remarkable for artifacts of wide-ranging subject matter. Among them are found both imaginative creatures of the supernatural world and realistic images of many objects and artifacts of daily life in the secular world.
