The first piece of art I choose spoke to me;  I was completely drawn to stele with bodhisattva Tang Dynasty (618-907) mid to late 7th century and it has this historical look to it.the reason why i chose this sculpture is amazing because i feel like if you just stare it speeches to you in a wired way what i mean is if you just were to look at this sculpture  and kinda take in how long it took to build it an how carefully detailed it. i mean even though the sculpture  does have much color to it and does really have that many details its still breath taking and it has so much meaning behind it such as these sculptures were made to honor thesis warriors and they were also kinda to honor gods.

The secound pieces of rt work i chose was  rosary bead South Netherlandish, 1490-1525 
Gift of J. Pierpont Morgan,11717.190.473. This perticual peices of art spoke to me was because of how little it was but was so deatlied and so beatufil it was so amazing to look at this pieces of wood so delicatly done and master crafted into ths little secene of art it was so beath taking . The rosary, a fifteen-part grew in popularrity during the fiftheen cenatury. Chains of beads called chaplets or rosaries helped devotees keep track of the sequence during praying. this work of art is so breath taking and amzng  and i love every single deatil in this pieces of art like you can see each part of the faces and see little stone an you can see how deatiled it is. 

The reason why i chose thesse two part of art is because there beautful and have so much meaning behind them and there so deatailed and i feel like they have so much hisorty and so much of a back round that its truely amazing
