Theme of the Bronze Hall: A crossover between bronze artifacts and a zoo (Huh?) π¦π― πΏπ There are some truly impressive collections here, including a tiger-shaped vessel, of which only two exist in the worldβone of them is in Paris. π β¨ In the archaeological community, there are different interpretations of it; you can see this reflected in its name. In China, it's called "Tiger Eating Human Vessel," πΏπ while in Japan, it's simply referred to as "Tiger Vessel," highlighting the divergence in interpretations of its shape and meaning (Did the tiger really eat a person or not?). π€π I won't go on and on about the rest; those interested will naturally look it up. πΏπ The intricate designs of the cicada patterns, taotie motifs, and coiling dragons are absolutely stunning! ππ #Japan πΈ
