In downtown Beijing, the Museum of Prince Gong's Mansion is showcasing Danish Royal artwork ranging from the 17th century to the modern era.
From the Renaissance to the Baroque, and from the Rococo to the contemporaries, 87 pieces of art, mostly made up of embroidery handicraft but also including furniture and furnishings, are showcasing their royal charm and beauty to Chinese visitors.
Matt Skogod, curator of Frederiksborg Slot National History Museum of Denmark said: "Because we want to make the impression as precise and authentic as possible...where the costumes were originally used."
