Shiqu Baoji, or the Precious Collection of the Stone Moat, is the name given to the comprehensive catalogue of the Qing royal collections of Chinese paintings and calligraphic works across nearly 2,000 years from the Wei and Jin dynasties (220-420) to the Qing Dynasty (1644-1911). It includes such classic masterpieces as Ode to the Goddess of the Luo River, Along the River During the Qingming Festival, A Panorama of Rivers and Mountains and Five Oxen. Aiming to bring relics back to life and make them known to the world, the Palace Museum has continued to explore new ways in recent years to represent brilliant Chinese civilization, inherit and promote precious cultural heritage, and revitalize cultural relics to impress the people and the world.
