Entering the world of ancient Chinese paintings at the China Painting Heritage Archive, Spanish photographer Pablo Bueno brought us an artistic dialogue spanning thousands of years that connects Picasso and Emperor Huizong (1082-1135).

As one of China's premier art institutions, the archive in Hangzhou recently opened its doors for the world's largest-ever exhibition of Song Dynasty (960-1279) paintings.

In the archive, VR experiences and cutting-edge 3D caves allow visitors to deeply engage with the essence of these paintings, injecting modern vitality into these timeless works of art.
