Cultures can learn from each other. If we
can only talk to each other about art, technology and politics,
then we can stop the fighting that occurs simply because cultures
are so different. The teapot symbolizes eastern art, and the
skull eastern religion. The pipe is a symbol of Western Art,
and the musical instrument symbolizes eastern religion. The
leaning stone tower represents philosophy. A revolutionary person
from the 1930 s China faces a Mongolian, who represents the
minority races within China. They are flanked by three Han Chinese;
Han being the predominant racial group within China.
