A glimpse into life and faith in the Han Dynasty

The Suzhou Museum West Hall is currently hosting a special exhibition, "Life and Faith: A Special Exhibition of Han Dynasty Art," which focuses on the life and aspirations of ordinary people in the Han Dynasty. The Boshan incense burner is shrouded in clouds, and life is always hard, but the ancestors have written "smile in the face of adversity" into their genes.
This special exhibition brings together many fine Han Dynasty artifacts from the Hebei Museum, Guangzhou Institute of Cultural Relics and Archaeology, Hanjing Emperor Yangling Museum, Xianyang Museum, Chengdu Museum, Mianyang Museum, Jiaozuo Museum, Xuzhou Museum, and Xuzhou Han Terracotta Warriors Museum, recreating the hard work, warmth, and abundance of the Han Dynasty people's daily life, as well as their imagination of the universe and their interpretation of life.
