Abstract:

"The Terracotta Warriors had been sealed beneath the earth for two thousand years. Their discovery drew people's attention to ancient Chinese sculpture. Sculpture has long been considered in China as insignificant when compared to painting and calligraphy, which were thought of as classical arts. This program, however, unfolds the vast culture of Chinese sculpture as precious works of art as well as parts of daily lives."--Publisher's website www.huwadvd.com viewed 11/17/06
