00:00Hidden deep in southwest China, this sacred site offers a window into the past.
00:09The rock carvings of Tanzu are a stunning example of Chinese cave art,
00:13but perhaps the most important thing about these statues here
00:16is what they tell us about the life and belief in China more than a thousand years ago.
00:21I'll discover how advanced digital technology and AI are safeguarding these relics.
00:30In Europe, we'll also see what's being done to restore a Dutch national treasure.
00:35Welcome to Crossing Cultures. Join us as we explore the very best traditions of both China and Europe.
00:53The Tanzu rock carvings are one of the finest examples of Chinese cave temple art.
01:00Dating from the 9th to the 13th centuries,
01:02more than 10,000 figures chart the evolution of religious belief and artistic expression.
01:10In Yuanjue cave, 12 bodhisattvas advance towards perfect enlightenment.
01:15They are safeguarded by an ingenious stone drainage system
01:19that has protected the grotto for centuries.
01:21I heard that Yuanjue cave is a big project of research.
01:26This project is a project that wants to build a human being
01:31with a human being and a computer science.
01:33The 3-way damage is not only a 3-way view of the image,
01:38but also a technology that is a unique technique.
01:42Do you see that in Yuanjue cave,
01:44¿Cuáles son las posibilidades?
02:14¿Cuáles son las posibilidades?
02:44¿Cuáles son las posibilidades?
02:48Such technological advances allow researchers to capture and study the site with precision while also making the carvings accessible to a worldwide audience.
02:58¿Cuáles son las posibilidades?
03:00¿Cuáles son las posibilidades?
03:02¿Cuáles son las posibilidades?
03:04To discover the latest effort to restore a Dutch masterpiece, Paul has more.
03:08Bikes, bridges, cafés, canals. Amsterdam conjures up so many things.
03:21But if there's one place that truly captures its cultural heart, it's here, the Rijksmuseum.
03:29A temple to the Dutch Golden Age, one painting still reigns supreme, Rembrandt's Nightwatch.
03:35The Nightwatch is Rembrandt's most ambitious painting.
03:40He painted it at the pinnacle of his career and it's special because it's also a deeply humane painting.
03:48Since 2019, a major restoration in full view of the public has been taking place.
03:54Right now, conservators like Esther are delicately removing the old varnish from the imposing canvas.
04:00Esther, why are you removing the varnish?
04:05We are removing the varnish from the Nightwatch because it's a very yellow layer.
04:09It has aged over time. It's 50 years old.
04:12And it's also a bit greyish because it doesn't saturate the paint layers as well as it should.
04:19And how complex is a restoration like this? What are the main challenges you face?
04:24The painting is very big, which is a challenge in and of itself.
04:27The project itself is very big. We're doing a lot of research.
04:30And that makes everything exponentially bigger and more complex.
04:36Every move Esther makes is supported by the museum's science team,
04:39who examine the masterpiece in microscopic detail.
04:46The research we do with our team is really to understand the composition and condition of the Nightwatch.
04:53And this information helps conservators to make decisions in their treatment.
04:57So we have technology where we really scan through the painting.
05:01We do imaging.
05:02It will also take tiny samples to really dive into the paint to really understand what has happened over these 400 years.
05:09The Nightwatch is really an icon for the Netherlands and this restoration we're doing for the future and future generations.
05:20We'll see a Nightwatch, which will be much clearer, easier to read, but also have more depth.
05:27The contrast between light and dark, for which Rembrandt is so famous, will be more apparent.
05:32So that's why we decided that this is the time to restore it.
05:36400 years have taken their toll, previous restorations, exposure to the elements and a violent attack of all left scars.
05:45So what's the painting's condition today?
05:48The condition of the painting is, I would love to say, good.
05:52But if you're looking under the microscope, you can see that it's a damaged paint surface, which is not strange.
05:58I mean, it is 400 years old, but yeah, it's compromised.
06:03As for restoring one of the world's greatest paintings in front of the public, that was never in doubt.
06:08The Nightwatch, it's, in a sense, world heritage and it belongs to everyone.
06:14And we felt that the public has the right to see what we're doing to the painting.
06:20The Rijksmuseum has also moved much of its vast collection online, another innovative way in which it engages its audience.
06:30The public changes and you have to keep changing and finding new ways of presentation.
06:36So I think it's incredibly important for a museum to keep on moving, to keep on changing and to keep on showing this fantastic art, which is timeless.
06:55To bring Tato's ancient heritage to life, an 8K panoramic dome now allows visitors to study the carvings in stunning detail.
07:06From the past to the present,
07:36the latest technology aims to ensure stories, once etched in stone, continue to resonate.
07:45So there you have it.
07:46Some innovative and inspiring ways in which China and Europe are working to display and preserve our heritage.
07:52For now, that's all from me here in Chongqing.
