Absolutely stunning!
And all of it done with primitive tools and methods.

Most paint you buy nowadays has a 5 year warranty.

Foreign Devils on the Silk Road by Peter Hopkirk tells the story of the organized looting of Central Asian temples by Western explorers and collectors late 1800s-early 1900s.

I'm reminded of what the Taliban Muslims did to the Buddha statues in Afghanistan, and how Islam is down on pre-Islamic art. The collectors probably saved a lot from destruction.
