A recent archaeological discovery in a 1,300-year-old tomb has revealed unique frescoes that depict various aspects of everyday life during the Tang dynasty. According to Long Zhen, the director of the Jinyang Ancient City Research Institute from Taiwan's Cultural Heritage Protection Institute, the frescoes show pairs of figures painted on both sides of the tomb's doors, within the tomb, the frescoes range from women grinding flour to men making pasta and women preparing water with oranges, alongside men pounding rice with special equipment. This art provides a fascinating insight into the daily lives and activities of the people lived during that historical period.

These frescoes have been identified as belonging to a male individual who passed away in 736 AD, aged 63, during the height of the Tang dynasty, which lasted from 618 to 907 AD. Art experts assert that the tomb's owner was buried alongside his wife, indicating the social customs surrounding death and burial during that era. Moreover, the frescoes, styled in what experts describe as 'figures under tree' fashion, were a fashionable depiction style at the time, showcasing intended representations of daily activities occurring under artistically rendered trees.

The artistic representations depict predominantly Han ethnicity figures, emphasizing the cultural and societal norms of the Tang dynasty, which is noted for its rich artistic heritage and flourishing culture. The discovery not only augments the knowledge of Tang dynasty life but also signifies the historical importance of funerary art as a cultural artifact that reflects the values and daily experiences of its time, providing valuable context to historians and researchers of ancient Chinese culture.
