SPairs of lions guarded
the gateways and mansions of imperial China - the male (to the right) clutching
a ball, the female (to the left) holding down her cub.
The ROM's monumental pair
reportedly stood before the residental compound of a Manchu prince in Beijing.
The Museum has commissioned
stylish new coats to protect the lions from moisture during the harsh winter
months.
Protection of The Guardian
Lions in Winter is made possible through the collaboration of Holt Renfrew
in partnership with Canadian designer Dominic Bellissimo.
