- Cover photo description:
- Chinese guardian lions are sometimes referred to in English as shishi, from the Chinese shà shÄ« Chinese: 石ç…; pinyin: shÃshÄ«; literally: `stone lion`, which refers specifically to lion sculptures in stone. Statues of guardian lions have traditionally stood in front of Chinese Imperial palaces, Imperial tombs, government offices, temples, and the homes of government officials and the wealthy, from the Han dynasty 206 B.C. – A.D. 220, and were believed to have powerful mythic protective benefits.
