One of China's best-known ancient paintings, the Dwelling in the Fuchun Mountains, is shown in its entirety for the first time in more than 360 years in the Taipei Palace Museum in June, 2011. The painting was damaged and torn in two in the 17th century. One part of the painting was kept in Taiwan after 1948 while the other section remained on the Chinese mainland. [Photo/Chinanews.com]
