Updated: 2009-07-06 09:15 XI'AN: The Daming Palace Foundation in Shaanxi's provincial capital has recruited five volunteers from the Shaanxi provincial history museum, Xi'an cultural relic protection and restoration center and Xi'an archaeological institute. They are excellent experts in the repair of stone, pottery, tri-colored relics, ancient constructions, tablets, calligraphy works, paintings and metal. Some of them have worked in their fields for 30 years. After training, two of the five experts will go to the United States to repair two stone horse sculpture reliefs dating back to the Tang Dynasty (AD618-907), said Guan Zhaoyi, deputy secretary-general of the foundation. It is in response to a request from the University of Pennsylvania, where they are on display, Guan added.
The images, which feature the horses in different poses, are true-to-life specimens of Tang-era sculpture. Smugglers stole the reliefs in 1918 but were stopped by locals in Tongguan, Shaanxi. However, the thieves still managed to get two of the artworks to the US, while the other four ended up in Xi'an's Forest of Steles Museum. As the two reliefs were broken into several pieces during transport, the University of Pennsylvania Museum had asked the foundation to send two experts to work with their American counterparts to restore them. Lots of volunteers signed up from April 16 to May 16 as it will be the first time China sends experts abroad to repair Chinese relics. A panel consisting of top-notched experts in relics, relic protection and repair first chose seven volunteers after reviewing their resume early last time and then chose the five after interviews, said the foundation's deputy secretary-general Sun Fuxi. Sun said the US university had earmarked $70,000 for the restoration, which is expected to take a month. "We hope the two horse reliefs will be perfectly repaired and can be exhibited overseas in the future," Guan said. |
