Showcasing history of Panchen Lamas
Print Edition
The Palace Museum will host an exhibition featuring the first through the ninth Panchen Lamas and the Zhaxi Lhunbo Lamasery from December this year to February, 2020.
The exhibition will be the first of its kind in the nearly 600-year-old Forbidden City, the former imperial palace, since 1925, according to organizers. It will present over 220 pieces (or sets) of artwork, including 80 from the Zhaxi Lhunbo Lamasery, the home temple of Panchen Lamas, in Xigaze in Tibet Autonomous Region.
Most of the exhibits will be displayed to the public for the first time.
These treasures represent the tributary relationship between the successive Panchen Lamas and the central government of the Qing Dynasty (1644-1911) and reflect the efforts by the imperial court to unify the country during the 17th and 18th centuries, the museum said in a statement.
The exhibition will also show the fourth, fifth and sixth Panchen Lamas鈥 contributions to the stability of Tibet and the Qing Dynasty鈥檚 administration of the region and surrounding areas.
The works will present testimony of this unique period of history and display the auspicious beauty of China鈥檚 cultural heritage, the museum said.
