This is not your stereotypical “grandpa in his rocking chair carving a small woodland creature” scenario.
Projects of the like are small scale and beautiful in their own right, but when I stumbled upon the scene in the photos below, I couldn’t believe my eyes.
Chinese artist Zheng Chunhui has landed himself in the Guinness Book Of World Records for his phenomenal recreation of a 1,000-year-old Chinese scroll painting dating back to the Song dynasty.
For centuries, China has held a tradition of transforming blocks of raw wood into incredible sculptures that showcase their beautiful culture.
This tradition continues today. Chunhui’s 40 foot masterpiece is simply breathtaking.
