An exhibition called Times of Prosperity: The Imperial Art of High Qing at the Long Museum West Bank in Shanghai is showcasing Qing Dynasty art treasures from the 17th-18th centuries.

The show, which runs until Nov 18, features art and cultural treasures from the reigns of three emperors: Kangxi (1661-1722), Yongzheng (1723-35) and Qianlong (1736-99). This period marks the most prosperous part of the Qing Dynasty (1644-1911).
