World's longest painting

A colleague from Franklin College recently shared this web site. You will find an amazing piece of art accompanied by Chinese music of a painting found at the National Palace Museum in Taipei. It truly is amazing in its scope and detail. I was able to see this painting when I visited the museum as well as a replica found at the Light of Buddha Mountain that is made of real hair.

Currently, there is an exhibit at the National Palace Museum titled "Treasures of the World Cultures--The British Museum after 250 years. Some of the beautiful pieces that I hope to see are below.
