What can we do to protect our cultural heritage
Think
Focusing on culture
Many people work hard to protect traditional artworks. Let's explore the work done by the caretakers of the Mogao Caves.
1 Read the article about Fan Jinshi and find out how she helped save the Mogao Caves.
Dunhuang’s Mogao Caves is one of China's first UNESCO World Heritage Sites. It has the world's largest collection of Buddhist art. The caves are full of priceless wall paintings and sculptures. Unfortunately, the site has been damaged by sand, weather and human activity. Thanks to the hard work of Fan Jinshi and her colleagues, we can still see these cultural treasures today.
Fan began working as an archaeologist in Dunhuang after she graduated from Peking University. Her job was to study and protect the Dunhuang artworks. One day when she was comparing old photos with new ones, she made a shocking
discovery. Some caves were completely different, and some of the old artworks were gone.
Fan Jinshi: the daughter of Dunhuang
“Will this happen to all the paintings ” she wondered. Fan made up her mind: she had to save these cultural treasures.
Fan and her colleagues did everything they could: they limited the number of visitors, they put doors on the caves, and they did their best to control the
temperature and humidity inside. However, Fan soon realized that the damage could only be slowed down—they could not stop it completely. In this harsh natural environment, these caves simply wouldn't last forever.
It was heartbreaking to think about it, but Fan did not give up. She and her
colleagues continued to search for ways of preserving the treasures. They finally decided to make digital copies of the paintings. This was the start of the Digital Dunhuang project. After many years of hard work, the first part of the
collection came online in 2016.Now, people all over the world can explore the unique art of the Mogao Caves without leaving their homes.
Fan has dedicated her life to researching and preserving this important part of
China's cultural heritage. “The longer I've stayed here, the deeper my love has grown for Dunhuang,” Fan said. “That is why people call her the daughter of Dunhuang”.
Notes
The Mogao Caves are one of the three most famous cave sites in China. They are located at the eastern foot of the Mingsha Hill. The first of these caves was dug in the 4th century CE. Famous for their beautiful wall paintings and statues of great artistic value, the caves were added to the UNESCO World Heritage List in 1987.
莫高窟是中国最著 名的三大石窟遗址之一， 位于鸣沙山东麓。这些 洞窟最早是在公元4世纪挖掘的，因为它们美 丽的壁画和雕像具有很 高的艺术价值，1987年 被列入联合国教科文组 织《世界遺产名录》。
