Cats and Other Animals in the Egyptian Museum


Cat mummy on the left. Egyptians really love their cats.


Well, this bull reminds me the bison paintings in the Chauvet cave and is very Picasso.
Egyptians believe humans have 5 souls. This is one of them. It reminds me Eva Green's character in "Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children".

My Favorite Object at Stanford's Cantor Museum

Visiting an old friend at Stanford. 
Beautiful colors, incredible craftsmanship and detail, the Kirin looks like from another world.
See the tiny holes on the head. This beautiful Kirin is actually an incense burner.
