An intricately carved artwork, titled "钓鱼台之春" (Spring at Diaoyutai), is displayed in what appears to be an exhibition space in Guang Zhou Shi, China. The central piece is a curved sculpture, predominantly off-white, resembling a large tusk or horn. It features highly detailed miniature buildings, trees, and cloud motifs, depicting a traditional Chinese landscape or cityscape. The carving showcases an array of palaces and structures, creating a sense of depth and grandeur. This white sculpture rests on a dark brown, ornate wooden stand with swirling, traditional patterns. The artwork is presented behind glass, with a white informational plaque in the foreground providing details. The background is a light-colored wall with a subtle, faint pattern of buildings. No people or specific activities are visible, but the context implies it's an exhibit for viewing. Notable details from the plaque, corroborated by the provided OCR, state that the piece is a representative work of traditional "ivory carving" techniques, though it is made from ox bone (牛骨). It uses carving and relief methods, mimicking the shape of an original ivory tusk to represent a stone mountain bridge. The carving skillfully depicts the majestic Beijing Diaoyutai State Guesthouse, including its architecture. The market price is approximately 100,000 RMB. The artist is identified as 张民辉 (Zhang Minhhui), an inheritor of national intangible cultural heritage for ivory carving and a Master of Chinese Arts and Crafts. A red seal-like element on the sculpture itself contains the characters "皆业宫角錢".
