One
tree, four
years of work
and an
indescribable
amount of
talent: that’s
what it took
to create this
incredible
masterpiece.
A
famous Chinese
wood carver
chopped down a
single tree
and tirelessly worked
on it for
over four
years to make
this piece.
It
all started
out with a
simple tree
trunk…
Then
Zheng Chunhui,
a famous wood
carver, spent
over four
years creating
this
masterpiece.
The
carving is
based on the
famous Chinese
painting
“Along
the River
During the
Qingming
Festival.”
The
original
artwork was
created over
1,000 years
ago.
The
piece won the
Guinness World
Record for the
longest
wooden
carving and
measures over
40ft
(specifically,
it
is 12.286
meters long,
is 3.075
meters tall at
it highest
point,
and
is also 2.401
meters wide).
The
intricate
carvings of
daily life in
ancient China
are
so detailed
and perfect.
It’s
no surprise
that this
incredible
work of art is
drawing so
much
attention.
It’s
amazing, but
not just
because it’s
so big, but
also because
it’s so
incredibly
detailed.
