What an amazing work! Was one of the paintings made by Emperor Huizong from the Song dynasty? I think I recognized the Slender Gold calligraphy style. I love doing Chinese painting, calligraphy and seal carving and I hope that I can learn how to make Chinese scrolls myself.

I wonder about all the Chinese art that has long been stolen from China and if we should be working towards repatriation of these artworks. I know it is a very delicate matter and there are strong opinions on both sides.

Not all Chinese artworks are stolen. most of them come from formal art trading channels and immigrant collectors, but there are still a small part that are indeed lost in the war. There are relevant institutions dedicated to finding their sources.

@@qianhe2328 I’m glad that some are genuinely here through partnership and trust. Art like this should be shared between all peoples. I’m also glad that people are working towards returning pieces that were not properly loaned or traded or whatnot.
