[Living Tradition] Foreign visitors
Korea’s Cultural Heritage Administration announced recently that it has completed scientific analysis on 11 wall painting pieces it brought from Uzbekistan’s Afrasiab Museum last year. The pieces were from a painting, shown above, depicting foreign envoys from the ancient Korean kingdom of Goguryeo (37 B.C. to A.D. 668), indicated in a red box, Tibet and the Tang Dynasty of China. The administration and Uzbekistan’s Culture Ministry agreed to cooperate on heritage research when President Moon Jae-in visited the museum in April 2019. [CULTURAL HERITAGE ADMINISTRATION]
