Discover the fascinating stories behind our 30 treasures display. From a seventeenth century Tibetan Buddhist Sakyamuni Buddha to an over 250-year-old Chinese imperial exam cheat sheet, this extraordinary selection of objects is part of the Museum of East Asian Art’s 30th Anniversary exhibition ‘From Hong Kong to Bath: A Lifelong Journey of Collecting’ (28 June 2023 to 22 June 2024). This exhibition pays tribute to Brian Shane McElney OBE, who founded the Museum in 1993, and who passed away on 26 April 2023 at the age of 90.
