Cave No. 465 Family Dependents Yuan Dynasty (1271 - 1368) Dunhuang, China
The Mogao Caves are a system of Buddhist cave temples created from the 4th century at a strategic point on the Silk Road. More and more were built and they remained an important centre of culture until the 14th century. This card shows a mural in one of the later caves of the Yuan Dynasty.
Lovely card and the stamps as well, isn't that interesting, the script I mean. I've always loved it.
