Ancient Buddhist statues from Qingzhou to be on display in Fujian

An exhibition featuring ancient Qingzhou sculpture art will be unveiled at the Fuzhou Museum in Fujian province tomorrow. It will showcase the cultural elegance of the Southern and Northern Dynasties (420-581), displaying the serene smiles of Buddhist statues from over 1,000 years ago.

In 1996, over 400 Buddhist statues were unearthed from a hoard in the Longxing Temple in Qingzhou, Weifang, Shandong. Spanning from the Northern Wei Dynasty (386-534) to the Northern Song Dynasty (960-1127), these masterpieces are celebrated worldwide for their significant status in the history of Eastern art.
