The great Chinese Nation created the rich and colorful Oriental culture
Pekingese has a history of thousands of years from royal breeding that symbolizes nobility and power,They became a model of the world's most noble dog
As a Beijing native I am a unique affection for the Beijing and Chinese traditional culture and also for the culture of dogs
For as long as I can remember,I often saw the seniors followed by an ingot-shaped (or pear shaped) Pekingese on the streets and alleyways,It was the fondest memory of my childhood
As time goes by,all the new development and construction in Beijing is diminishing small alleys and old buildings,The Old "Beijing-style" is being blurred by the trend of diversification,Pekingese can rarely be seen in recent years on the streets
I hopes by creating these two bronze sculptures, it can be a testament to the ancient Capital of this historic Imperial City that would carry on the history forever
" Long.er " and " Lan.er "
were created and named by my own
summarized my love and affection for the breed
They symbolize the true integrity and demeanor of the Chinese nation
also captured what in my mind of the undeniable essence and spirit of the Pekingese
