THE FIRST EMPEROR British Museum exhibition ***(*)


The highlight of this exhibition are 20 or so of the 8,000 terracotta warriors from China. The detail on each figure is amazing. We were particularly taken with the individual hairstyles and the sole of a kneeling archer's shoe.

It is interesting, but a little anti-climactic after seeing the vastness of the site and the ranks of warriors on TV.
