Marking the 60th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations between France and China, as well as the 2024 Franco-Chinese Year of Cultural Tourism, an exhibition titled Ming Gold: Splendors and Beauties of Imperial China opened at the Guimet Museum in Paris, running from Sept 18 to Jan 13.
Featuring an exceptional collection of goldwork masterpieces — 134 pieces including ornaments and vessels — from the Ming Dynasty (1368-1644), the exhibition, co-organized by the Qujiang Museum of Fine Arts in Xi'an, Shaanxi province, allows visitors to discover the craftsmanship of a refinement seldom found anywhere else in the world.
