Cave Temples of Dunhuang

Carved by hand out of a cliff face in northwestern China, the Cave Temples of Dunhuang contain the world’s largest collection of Buddhist art. Inside are 500,000 square feet of colorful wall paintings and 2,000 painted clay sculptures. Cave 17, known as the Library Cave, once housed nearly 50,000 ancient manuscripts, including the world’s oldest dated printed book, the Diamond Sutra.

The Getty Conservation Institute has been working with the Dunhuang Academy for 26 years to study and help preserve the caves’ precious wall paintings. Treasures from this UNESCO World Heritage site are coming to the Getty in May 2016 for the exhibition Cave Temples of Dunhuang: Buddhist Art on China’s Silk Road, which will also feature life-size, walk-in recreations of three caves hand-painted by artists from Dunhuang.
