Rediscovered Treasures: Rediscovered Treasures features the hidden gems of East Asian art rediscovered through advanced research or conservation in the Cincinnati Art Museum. Most of these 60 highlighted works entered the museum in the late 19th or early 20th centuries when the museum had no staff to identify Asian art. As a result, many were not fully documented or accessioned. The rediscovery of these objects over the past decades and their subsequent accession and conservation have not only changed the identities of many individual art works, but also the overall dynamics of the entire collection. Together, they also shed new light on the early and consequential cultural and artistic exchanges between Cincinnati and East Asia.
