EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable pair of belt plaques from the Han dynasty, dating back to 206 BCE-220 CE. The artist behind these exquisite pieces remains unknown, adding an air of mystery and intrigue to their creation. Crafted with meticulous attention to detail, these belt plaques are made of bronze and feature intricate decorative patterns that reflect the artistic sensibilities of ancient China. The close-up shot allows us to appreciate the delicate craftsmanship and vibrant colors used in their design. These belt plaques were not merely functional accessories but also served as symbols of status and style during the Han dynasty. They adorned clothing with elegance and sophistication, enhancing the overall appearance of those who wore them. The photograph was taken at a renowned art institution - the Arthur M Sackler Gallery - which is part of the Smithsonian Institution's Freer Gallery of Art in Washington D. C. This scientific establishment is dedicated to preserving cultural heritage through its vast collection. Although we may never know who precisely created these magnificent belt plaques or where they were originally found (possibly in Inner Mongolia or Ordos), this image allows us to marvel at their beauty and appreciate their significance within Chinese history and decorative arts.
