peonypavillion:一世长安 (Chang’an of a Lifetime) by 风一伊 (Feng Yi Yi) depicts the Bell Tower of Xi’an in a mix of warm tones and gentle watercolour. A famous tourist site in the Shaanxi Province of China and standing at almost 40 metres high, it is the largest and best-preserved bell tower from ancient China. This particular painting holds sentiment for me as my family live in Xi’an, China, and the Bell Tower is their city’s pride and joy. The warm hues and gentle watercolours bring out the ethereal illuminations of this grand tower at night, and the artist captures the visuals of awe one would have visiting this grand beauty.You can read more about the Xi’an Bell Tower here. -- source link
