Recently, the "My 2025 Museum Tour" selection, jointly initiated by "Weibo History" and the "Online Platform for Museums and Cultural Relics," concluded. The Liaoning Museum successfully made it into the top ten of the annual "Top Heart-Selected Museums" list. Concurrently, the museum's collection piece, "Ladies with Flowered Headdresses," and its launched exhibition, "Shared Land: Cultural Relics Themed on Liao and Jin Dynasty History and Culture," also ranked highly on the annual "Top Heart-Selected Cultural Relics" and "Top Heart-Selected Exhibitions" lists, respectively.
The Liaoning Museum's "Ladies with Flowered Headdresses" uses meticulous brushwork and heavy colors to depict five court ladies and one maidservant, with small dogs, a white crane, and lily magnolia flowers点缀ing the figures. The court ladies, all plump in stature, are shown either playing with a dog, holding a flower, catching a butterfly, or deep in thought, fully presenting the dignified and elegant image of noblewomen.
The "Shared Land: Cultural Relics Themed on Liao and Jin Dynasty History and Culture" exhibition opened at the Liaoning Museum on September 29, 2024, displaying a total of 454 pieces/sets of cultural relics. The exhibits include important artifacts excavated from Liao and Jin dynasty tombs and sites both inside and outside the province, such as the Imperial Mausoleum Site Cluster of the Liao Dynasty at Mount Yiwülü, the Upper Capital of Liao, the Mausoleum of Liao Taizu, the Tomb of Princess of Chen, the Tomb of the Royal Son-in-Law at Dayingzi, the Imperial Mausoleums of the Jin Central Capital, and the Temple Site at Mount Changbai. The curatorial team integrated the latest academic research findings into the exhibition's structural framework, artifact selection, and interpretive elements, using innovative exhibition concepts and display techniques to present the inclusive and diverse nature of Liao and Jin culture. Through vivid interpretations of the relics and the telling of their stories, the exhibition highlights the profundity and far-reaching influence of Chinese civilization.
