Conservation of a Chinese Masterpiece: Juanqinzhai in the Forbidden City
The Metropolitan Museum of Art presents a talk with T.K. McClintock about Juanqinzhai, a building in the Qianlong Emperor's retirement complex.
Where
Juanqinzhai, or the Studio of Exhaustion from Diligent Service, is the most private building in a group of pavilions, gardens, and courtyards built between 1771 and 1776 to serve as the Qianlong Emperor's retirement complex within the Forbidden City. Learn about the conservation of this delicate pavilion, which is just the first phase of an ongoing collaboration between the Palace Museum and the World Monuments Fund to conserve the entire Qianlong Garden complex.
Education programs are made possible by The Freeman Foundation.
