In the Qing dynasty, successive Panchen Lamas established close political ties with the court. The successive Panchen Lamas’ offerings to Qing emperors and the court’s gifts to the Panchen Lamas – which are housed in the Palace Museum and the Tashi Lhunpo Monastery – are the most important evidence of this part of history. Golden Eminence - Treasures from the Palace Museum and the Tashi Lhunpo Monastery brings together 137 precious cultural relics from both collections. The treasures unveil the profound Tibetan Buddhist art and culture, and the Chinese nation’s multi-ethnic unity and inclusiveness. This exhibition catalogue features images and captions of all 137 exhibits and the abstract of a research essay.
