Collection of cultural relics "long hair"? Cultural relics protection needs more "care"
According to media reports, when a tourist visited the Qianling Museum in Xianyang, Shaanxi, he discovered that the pottery figurines in the glass windows looked "hairy" and posted the pictures.
Netizens joked that the "Tang pottery painted Huren figurines" were covered with small fluff around them, which looked like a "golden monkey" under the light.
The "growth" of cultural relics in the collection is unheard of. What causes the "growth" of cultural relics? Will it affect the cultural relics?
Netizens onlookers have also started the "detection" mode.
As a national key cultural relics protection unit, Qianling Museum only discovered the abnormality of the cultural relics after visitors took pictures, which is a bit unreasonable.
It is not yet possible to determine whether managers are negligent, but this at least shows that they are not "attentive."
The deputy curator of Qianling Museum Chen explained in an interview with the media that the cultural relics would undergo salting out due to changes in weather and temperature, and said that the cultural relics have been dismantled and are now processed and maintained in the cultural relics restoration room.
The museum also contacted relevant cultural relics experts and will further inspect the cultural relics.
In fact, due to its precious historical and cultural value and non-renewable characteristics, cultural relics have very high requirements for the collection conditions, including strict environmental temperature and humidity standards.
Why did the cultural relics undergo salting out this time? Why did the museum fail to find out in time, whether there are loopholes in the daily inspection work, and whether the salting-out has any impact on the cultural relics... It is also necessary for the museum involved to "take two steps" to respond in detail to public questions.
As we all know, museums bear the responsibility of preserving traditional cultural relics and inheriting history and culture.
In recent years, the popularity of traditional culture has not diminished, and museums have become more and more people's "check-in places", especially popular among young people.
In contrast to this, Qianling Museum should "grow snacks" and carefully study the reasons for the salting out of cultural relics to minimize the damage to cultural relics.
In addition, the museum involved should also take this as an opportunity to find management loopholes in the protection of cultural relics, improve the details, and try to avoid such things from happening again.
"Let the cultural relics come to life" must not be just a talk, the museum responsible for the preservation of cultural relics must have a "temperature".
Museums have the mission of making traditional culture within reach. In terms of cultural relics protection, in addition to relying on the professional level of cultural relics protection workers, it also requires "carefulness" in daily maintenance of cultural relics.
Only in this way can the cultural relics left by our ancestors be passed on from generation to generation.
