Terracotta Warriors Exhibition Opens in Rome

Age-old Chinese warriors have come back to figurative life in a major new exhibition in Rome that started on Friday, one of the most keenly awaited shows in the capital this autumn.

The striking terra-cotta figures are from the "army" of life-sized warriors, horses and chariots found near the mausoleum of Qin Shi Huangdi, the first emperor of a united China in the third century BC.

"We have tried to bring these statues, destined never to be seen again, back to life," said curator Maurizio Scarpari.

"They have become imbued with extraordinary force," Scarpari went on, stressing the enthusiastic response to the show of the governor of China's Shaanxi Province, which loaned the famed figures.

As well as the warriors, burial garments embroidered with jade and golden threads are among the star attractions of the show, which covers 1,000 years of Chinese imperial life - "the most splendid period in the history of the Celestial Empire," Scarpari said.

On display are some 320 artifacts, some of which have never left China, from 13 museums.

The exhibition, which runs from September 22 to January 28, is entitled "China: The Birth of an Empire."

Italian President Giorgio Napolitano, who visited the show before it opened Friday, said it was "fantastic."

It underscored the thousand-year-old friendship between Italy and China, sparked by such trail-blazing figures as Marco Polo and the Jesuit priest Matteo Ricci, said the president.
