FINE ART and EMBROIDERY

 

Mongolian fine art has a rich history and reflects the people's life and labor. Fine art is one of the origins of any nation's culture. It is an aesthetic reflection of human emotions, imagination and handicraft.


Mongolian nomads not only decorated their dwellings, but also made pictures on silk. They embroidered various small articles such as bags for containing bowls, tobacco pouches, etc. Hats, clothes and boots were also embroidered for the nobles. Besides this, religious books were ornamented and embroidered. The Golden Fund of museums preserves some examples of this art: "White Tara", "Mongol Boots", "Ochirvanni".
