Inlaid Turquoise Bronze Plaque
From those angled sockets, two round eyes stare out, through 3,500 years of history. Who is it? Is it a dragon or a tiger? A bull or a deer? An owl or a bear? But at the same time, these eyes seem to be asking us the same question: who are you? On the slightly arched copper padding, there are more than 300 pieces of turquoise, which have lasted for more than 3,000 years but remain intact and polished.
