A few years ago, some of the statues of the Terracotta Army were on loan here in Virginia, so we went to see them in person. These were clay sculptures that were buried with China’s first emperor, Qin Shi Huang around 2200 years ago. These soldiers were incredible to see up close. Each one was a little different, with unique, individual traits like wrinkles, eye positions, the shape of the nose each being a variable. Each soldier has their own clothing style and hair preference…
