ABSTRACT: Chinese frescoes have a history of more than 2000 years. Through the study of these murals, we gain insight into the cultural spectacle and painting styles of the time. Therefore, this translation research focuses on an article from the official website of the Palace Museum. This article “Exploring the Verdant Landscapes of the Tang Dynasty through Dunhuang Murals” primarily discusses the landscape and other paintings found in the Tang Dynasty murals of Dunhuang, briefly outlining their content. The historical context and painting techniques highlighted in the article have played a crucial role in promoting Dunhuang murals as an intangible cultural heritage, deepening the understanding of foreign readers about this significant aspect of Chinese art.
