China's modern history is indeed a very poignant history of blood and tears; we in China have been wantonly humiliated by foreign powers, and the country has fallen into a deep and fiery situation, and in those years, countless cultural relics of the country have been looted by foreigners, especially the burning of the Yuanmingyuan, as well as the looting of the Summer Palace, etc. Of course, what is even more humiliating is the war of aggression against China, which has caused China to lose countless national treasure-level cultural relics.
Nowadays, these cultural relics are lying in the museums of their countries, and the cultural relics we want to introduce today are one of them, it is a Chinese painting from a thousand years ago, if you can get it back to the motherland, it is estimated that it can also be ranked in the sequence of the top ten famous paintings
Unfortunately, this Chinese painting was later snatched by the British during the burning of the Summer Palace, and now this Chinese painting lies in the British Museum, and it is also the treasure of the town hall in the museum!
It is the famous "Female Shi Zhen Tu", "Female Shi Zhen Tu" is the peak level of the Eastern Jin Dynasty painter Gu Kaizhi' work, of course, the original work has long been lost, and the "Nu Shi Zhen Tu" now preserved in the British Museum is only a facsimile of the Tang Dynasty, but even so, this Tang Facsimile "Female Shi Zhen Tu" is also extremely precious, otherwise it would not be so valued by our cultural relics experts.
So what exactly is painted in the "Female History Proverbs"? Because this painting has a total of 9 paragraphs, there are also 9 different paragraphs of content, we will not introduce them one by one, anyway, the scene reproduces the delicate, polite, reserved, costume and other images of aristocratic women in the Eastern Jin Dynasty, which can be said to be really both form and god, absolutely priceless!
Unfortunately, this "Female Shi Zhen Tu" also experienced the burning of the Summer Palace by the Eight-Power Alliance, and the "Female Shi Zhen Tu" was stolen by a British person named Ji Yongsong, and then it has been lying in the Uk, and later this Ji Yongsong sold it to the British Museum, and since then the "Female Shi Zhen Tu" has completely remained in Britain.
In fact, "Female Shi Zhentu" once had a very good opportunity to return to the motherland, but the British were very shameless, so they used clever tricks, and finally missed the opportunity alive.
It was during World War II, when the British army was besieged by the Japanese army, fortunately at this time our Chinese army dared to go to the rescue, and finally successfully saved these thousands of British troops from the hands of the Japanese army.
But it also gave another choice, that is, to let lao Jiang choose, either to send us a brand new Imperial submarine, or to take away the "Female History Proverbs", and finally for the sake of the overall situation, can only choose to take away the British submarine.
Maybe in the future, "Female History Zhentu" may return to our embrace in China, looking forward to coming to Japan!
