EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a squared disc (cong) from the Neolithic period, specifically the Liangzhu Culture that existed around 8000-2000 BC in China. The vessel takes the form of a straight tube with a circular bore and square outer section, representing the artistic ingenuity of its time. The intricate carving on this jade artifact reflects the rich heritage art of ancient China. The unknown artist skillfully used color to enhance its beauty, creating an exquisite piece that has stood the test of time for over 3,000 years. Displayed in an art gallery at the Art Institute of Chicago, this object is part of their Arts of Asia collection. Its presence allows visitors to immerse themselves in Chinese history and appreciate the craftsmanship and creativity that flourished during prehistoric times. As we gaze upon this photo print, we are transported back to a distant era when stone carvings like these were revered as symbols of cultural significance. It serves as a reminder of our shared human history and provides us with glimpses into civilizations long gone. Let us marvel at this remarkable artifact from Liangzhu Culture - an enduring testament to human creativity and innovation throughout millennia.
