EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of a warrior from the tomb of Emperor Shihuangdi during the Qin Dynasty in ancient China. The terracotta sculpture, housed at Xi'an Beilin Museum in Shaanxi Province, showcases intricate details and vibrant colors that were once painted on these remarkable warriors. The photograph focuses on an infantryman, distinguished by his twisted hair styled into a bun and buttoned clothing. Unlike some other warriors who wore armor, this particular soldier opted for a more lightweight attire to enhance mobility. In his right hand, he holds a crossbow, ready to defend the emperor's tomb with unwavering loyalty. Notable features include his finely groomed mustache and a fly under his lower lip, along with a beard collar that adds an air of authority to his appearance. A necklace adorns his neck as an additional symbol of status and power. Through this image, we are transported back in time to witness the grandeur and sophistication of ancient Chinese culture. It serves as a testament to the craftsmanship and artistic skill prevalent during the Qin Dynasty. Photographer Philippe Toutain has expertly captured every detail of this magnificent terracotta warrior while preserving its historical significance for generations to come.
