This ancient bronze ying (liquor container) with a tiger-shaped knob and tiger motifs over its body from the late Western Zhou Dynasty (c.11th century-771 BC) was returned to China in 2018 after being looted in 1860. It is now on view at a touring exhibition titled Hu Ying: New Age, Different Fate in the Shanhaiguan Museum of the Great Wall of China in Qinhuangdao, Hebei province. The display highlights China's dedication to recovering lost cultural treasures.
