EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of ancient Chinese artistry. The image captures eave roof tiles adorned with intricate symbols of dragons and planets, dating back to the Han dynasty from 206 BC to 8 AD. Crafted from terracotta, these tiles are a testament to the exceptional craftsmanship of the Chinese School during this period. The dragon, symbolizing power and prosperity in Chinese culture, is depicted with great detail and elegance on these tiles. Its sinuous body curves gracefully along the rounded edges of the eaves, adding a touch of mythical charm to any architectural structure it adorns. Intermingled with the dragons are symbols representing celestial bodies such as planets. These elements reflect an understanding and appreciation for astronomy during that era. The combination of both earthly and heavenly motifs on these roof tiles highlights the harmonious relationship between nature and spirituality in ancient Chinese beliefs. Preserved at Xi'an Beilin Museum in Shaanxi Province, China, these artifacts offer us a glimpse into the rich cultural heritage of this region. Philippe Toutain's masterful photography allows us to appreciate every intricate detail captured within this print. As we admire this photograph, we can't help but marvel at how art has transcended time, connecting us with civilizations long gone while reminding us of their enduring legacy.
