What did Suzhou look like through the eyes of the greatest minds in history? A new exhibition at Nanjing Museum in Nanjing, Jiangsu province, invites you to explore the timeless beauty of Suzhou as captured in paintings and calligraphy since the Ming Dynasty (1368-1644). Follow the brushstrokes of figures like artist Shen Zhou (1427-1509), Emperor Qianlong (r. 1736-95), and architect Liu Dunzhen (1897-1968) — each offering a unique perspective shaped by their era and identity.
