EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the renowned artwork titled "Song of the Stone Drums, dated 1301" created by Xianyu Shu during the Yuan dynasty in China. The photograph beautifully captures a close-up view of this ancient masterpiece, highlighting its intricate calligraphy and delicate brushstrokes. The artwork itself is a transcription of a poem written by Han Yu, an esteemed poet from the Tang dynasty. In his poem, Han Yu fervently implores for the preservation of ten ancient Stone Drums that hold great historical significance. These drums, known as the Stone Drums of Qin, symbolize China's rich cultural heritage and serve as a testament to its glorious past. Displayed within the Metropolitan Museum of Art, this handscroll embodies both literary excellence and artistic brilliance. The use of ink on paper adds depth to each stroke while evoking a sense of nostalgia for centuries gone by. Xianyu Shu's meticulous attention to detail in capturing this piece through photography allows viewers to appreciate every nuance and subtlety present in this remarkable work. As we gaze upon it, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand the beauty and grandeur that once graced ancient China. Through this photograph, Xianyu Shu pays homage not only to Han Yu's poetic mastery but also celebrates China's enduring legacy as a country steeped in artistry and cultural richness.
