A richly illustrated book featuring recent revelations about Chinas first emperor, Ying Zheng, and his famous burial site containing an army of lifesize terracotta soldiers and other artifactsFirst discovered by a farmer in 1974, the burial site of Chinas first emperor, Ying Zheng, has yielded thousands of lifesize terracotta figures and artifacts, and continues to be excavated today. This fascinating publication features more than 130 works including ten of these majestic terracotta figures, arms and armor, horse and chariot fittings, ritual bronze vessels, works in gold and silver, jade ornaments, precious jewelry, and ceramics.Dating from the Eastern Zhou dynasty (770256 BC) through the Qin dynasty (221206 BC), these objects represent the complex history, myths, and burial customs of ancient China. The texts introduce recent scholarship on this material culture to illuminate not only the first emperors burial complex, but also his powerful influence in Chinese history and the myriad ways in which his political and economic reforms transformed the daily lives of the Chinese people.Distributed for the Virginia Museum of Fine ArtsExhibition Schedule:Virginia Museum of Fine Arts(11/18/1703/11/18)Cincinnati Art Museum(04/20/1808/12/18)
