Keeping Up with the Sasanians: Persian Splendour in Chinese and Japanese Art

At its peak, the Sasanian Empire spanned from the eastern Mediterranean and Mesopotamia to parts of India and Central Asia πŸͺ. It was also the time when public works πŸ›οΈ and patronized cultural and educational institutions 🏫 proliferated.

While the war-torn Iran today seems distant from us, Asian Art Historian Dr. Konstance Li πŸ‘¨πŸ»β€πŸŽ“ will show us that the magnificent legacy of Sasanian Persia ✨ in fact permanently altered the trajectory of Eurasian art history, and has a huge influence on Chinese and Japanese art today 🎨.

Join us on July 14 for an enriching and relaxing evening, with light refreshments and handmade macarons! πŸΉπŸ‡πŸ§€
