《Escape from the British Museum》Introduction to the Chinese thin jade pot with branching pattern

《Escape from the British Museum》will be broadcast at 8.30. It mainly tells the story of a Chinese jade pot with a thin body and a branch pattern that escaped from the British Museum and returned home thousands of miles away.The story begins when a jade pot wants to go home. The jade pot turns into a human form. This is because the cultural relics that cannot return home are too much missed. It is also the obsession of countless Chinese people who want cultural relics to return to their hometown.When visiting the British Museum, what we most want to take away must be the Chinese cultural relics, but they do not take the initiative to return them. We can only let the Chinese cultural relics escape. I believe that one day, we can take them home.

The prototype of the Chinese thin-bodied jade teapot with branching pattern is the jasper thin-bodied teapot displayed in the British Museum.

《Jasper Thin Body Teapot》 is the work of Yu Ting and won the 2007 Beijing Tiangong Award for Outstanding Work.This pot should have been purchased by the British Museum in a legitimate way.

Specifications: Diameter 9cm\Length 14.3cm\Height 8cm

Material: Qinghai Jasper

The pot-shaped lines are smooth, gentle and stretched, and have been transformed into a freehand style. The flowers resemble lotus flowers and Buddha's hands, which are auspicious and quiet. The lid is decorated with lotus leaf patterns and other lace.The whole work is dignified, steady, and spiritual. It is thin enough to see through the opposite side, and the carving is exquisite.

As one of the largest museums in the world today, the British Museum currently has a collection of more than 8 million items, of which there are more than 23,000 Chinese cultural relics in the museum, including stone tools from the Neolithic Age, painted pottery from the Yangshao Culture, and artifacts from the Shang, Zhou, Spring and Autumn and Warring States periods.Bronze, Tang and Song Dynasty tricolor, enamel and other almost all art categories, each piece is a unique collection.They are clustered in glass cabinets, with cold numbers trying to hide the stories behind them.

Why does the British Museum have such a rich collection of Chinese cultural relics?The British Museum claims that the Chinese cultural relics in its collection were obtained through gifts, purchases, exchanges, etc., but all Chinese people know what is going on.

“They looted everything that could be moved in the garden; if they couldn't move it, they used carts or animals to carry it; if they couldn't move it, they destroyed and destroyed it at will... The fire burned for three days.Smoke clouds enveloped the entire city of Beijing.”Everyone knows what this passage describes. This is a piece of history that makes the Chinese people sad.With the pace of British colonial expansion and the crazy plundering and theft during the war, historical and cultural collections and rare treasures from various countries have flowed into the British mainland and been collected in the British Museum.

Some people may say: If you fall behind, you will be beaten!%Yes, this is an undoubted fact, and we can use it as a motto to warn ourselves, but this should not be a legitimate reason for the looting of our cultural relics.A robber is a robber!

The huge number of missing cultural relics in the British Museum and the long duration of the case have triggered strong protests from various countries. People have questioned why the British police and museum authorities have not released photos and detailed descriptions of the stolen cultural relics. It is possible that more cultural relics were actually lost than 2,000 pieces..At the same time, various countries have been asking the British Museum to return cultural relics.Greece once again demanded that Britain return cultural relics that were removed from Greece in the 19th century, and Nigeria and other countries also called on the British Museum to return looted cultural relics.《Global Times》As a Chinese media, it also published an article recently, making a formal request to the British Museum: Please return all Chinese cultural relics obtained through illegal channels to China free of charge.

It is only natural that things should be returned to their original owners, but returning them actually faces many difficulties.Over the years, the main reason and basis for the British Museum's refusal to return cultural relics is the British Museum Act, which was revised by the British Parliament in 1963, which basically prohibits the museum from returning any collection.Setting an insurmountable legal threshold for refusing to return other people's things is really the height of rogueness.
