“A GLIMPSE into 6th–7th Century China: Discoveries at Li Jingxun’s Tomb” — now on view at the National Museum of China in Beijing — brings together a selection of artifacts unearthed from Li Jingxun’s burial, along with recently discovered key relics dating from the Northern and Southern Dynasties (420–589) to the Sui Dynasty (581–618).

Li was a girl who died in 608 at just 9 years old, raised within some of the most powerful families of her time. The lavish objects buried with her have led many to call her “the most beloved girl in history.”

The exhibition runs until Oct. 8.
