Cultural relics card:


Bronze owl-shaped Zun with inscriptions of Fu Hao is from the late Shang dynasty(1600 BC-1046 BC) of China. Its dimensions are: 46.3cm in height, 16.4cm in mouth length, 13.2cm in foot height, 13.4cm in cover height and 16kg in weight. It was unearthed from Fuhao tomb in Yin ruins of Anyang city, Henan Province in 1976 and collected by Henan Museum. Bronze owl-shaped Zun with inscriptions of Fu Hao is the earliest bird-shaped bronze vessel found in China.The craftsman combines rich imagination with reasonable exaggeration, and ingeniously takes animals as the theme to produce a functional ritual vessel. This is not only a true portrayal of real life, but also a summary of art.
