A full-scale reproduction of A Thousand Li of Rivers and Mountains (千里江山图), a celebrated Northern Song dynasty masterpiece by Wang Ximeng, is presented at the event. The approximately 12-meter-long scroll showcases the remarkable detail, composition, and vibrant blue-and-green landscape painting traditions of ancient China.
