大英博物馆2 British Museum tour2!

...@ the entrance of the Museum! Yeah, just after a short rain the marble bars of the entrance looked drenched with rain. On the very top of the museum, you can see the calvary and knights...I'm not sure what exactly that denotes but looks quite scenic.
Above & Below: @ the main hall of the inner part of the museum. The museum was enormous, and I felt I'm in an unexplored mansion for the first time.
Recently I'm still a bit busy because there's more reading assignments and essay deadlines approaching. But I as I said in my previous blog, I'll finish uploading my photos. So here are the remaining photos at the British Museum! As you can see, the architectures are very much like the Roman empire because it looked like the Colosseum in a way. Anyways, here are the commentary...
Looks like old watches/clocks in 12-15th century Europe...they look more like Golden Compasses because of the shape and its case.
Does this have to do with Jesus and the Bible or was it related to Christianity?? I don't know.
Above: Obviously Chinese porcelain were imported here as artifacts...these ceramics reminds me of the Ming Dynasty in which porcelains were made.
All should pray and bow to the Great Budda!
Above: More porcelain; they look like a collection of tea cups.
?? Are these sages really crucified into sculptures? I need to look it over again.
Bronze plate and pot with tiny bronze or golden pots...reminds me of those huge ones in the Forbidden City.
The master of richness sitting on his chair. Pray to him for all the richness you can get.

Below: Ceramics(pots, plates, vase) from China. Those patterns on them looks quite decorative don't you think?
