Terracotta China.

This is coolbert:

From the exhibit at the Field Museum, Chicago, Illinois, USA the Chinese Terracotta Warriors a series of images with emphasis on the facial features.

That question has been asked: "are the facial features of the 8,000 or so warriors as found in the mass burial pit each and everyone unique? As fashioned and based on a real person?"

Obviously also this is a replica additionally painted as would have been an original.




















And the consensus opinion regarding this topic is? The devoted reader will have to read further here and here for a more elaborate explanation and analysis..
