A special exhibition of the murals at the Mogao Grottoes in Dunhuang is ongoing at the Jiangxi Museum in Nanchang, not far from the world-famous porcelain capital of Jingdezhen. The murals were painted on pieces of porcelain and burnt to show the ceramic gloss, displaying the once-prosperous Dunhuang music and dancing in a unique way.
