Carved Hanging Text of Sun Tzu's "The Art of War"
Item Details
A carved hanging text of Sun Tzu’s 1521 The Art of War. This piece of artwork features the most important thoughts presented in the ancient text of the noted Chinese military strategist. Chapter titles and numbers are followed by Chinese characters, and then the text for each chapter, all carved onto wooden slats joined by cords to form a hanging book. The wood finish has a light stain on it which highlights the text, and the chapter titles are carved in relief to stand apart from the rest of the text on the piece.
