- Our latest film demonstrates how AHRC-funded research has underpinned a major exhibition exploring a golden age in China’s history.
The Exhibition explores the years 1400 - 1450, a pivotal 50 year period that transformed China during the rule of the Ming dynasty.
In this film we hear from the exhibition’s co-curators Jessica Harrison-Hall, British Museum and Professor Craig Clunas, University of Oxford who lead through the exhibition room at a time demonstrating some the finest and most historically important objects ever made in China.
The exhibition features a range of these spectacular objects - including exquisite porcelain, gold, jewellery, furniture, paintings, sculptures and textiles. Many of the objects have only very recently been discovered and have never before been seen outside China.
The carefully selected objects in this exhibition shed new light on this important part of world history that is little known in Europe. China’s internal transformation and connections with the rest of the world led to a flourishing of creativity from what was, at the time, the only global superpower.
The film is chance to see how AHRC funded research has shaped and informed the exhibition from the outset and how the funding has facilitated international exchange and partnership working with 21 international lenders including 10 Chinese institutions.

Recently I havd found out while working on my family tree in family search that I am a Ming descendant via a midddleage royal line. The search too me back from Spai to Portugal, Italy, and Armenia in that order. There I came upon a Princess, a descendant from a Ming ruler.
I believe the Ming dynasty has left a treasure buried under the Yangtze River close to Nanjing, China. You see, the Chinese were telling us that hundreds of ships were burned there after Zheng He completed his 7th voyage. Wood would have been reduced to ashes but not irons such as the anchors, cannons, nails, iron binders, etc. by the tens of thousands. If we use any modern instrument to find them, we should easily get a lot. On the other hand, if we get nothing, we will have proved that the Zheng He's fleet is a hoax.
Amazing and awesome
Int the e00s, during the Tang dynasty, many regions do existed.
awesome!
The blue & white porcelain cup looks like Medici “porcelain”
?
Admiral zheng he's voyages would be within these period.
Kiat Er : Zheng He's voyages might be a novel, not history. Zheng was given a huge fleet of 317 huge ships. They were built within 3 years of time, which averaged 1 ship every 3 days. How could ancient Chinese build ships this fast? And at the end of his voyages, all the ships were made to vanish suddenly by cremation in the Yangtze River. How could this be not a novel? And the title "Admiral" was given to Zheng by modern man, not given to him by the Ming dynasty. This also means novel.
Can you explain why the word dynasty is used for chinese people? reply
Anyone here from LUCY???
公石
Ming in Swahili means many or much. There is a belief the Ming had African origines.
But in Chinese, it means Bright or Brilliant
Everyone has African origines
