"Snow-covered Plateau," the Chinese painting exhibition on Tibet, was inaugurated in Rome on Octiber 23, drawing an enthusiastic welcome from the Italian public.

People attending the opening ceremony said they were impressed by the displayed works, which depict traditional and daily scenes of modern Tibet and show unique techniques of Chinese painters.

Mica Fiori, an Italian art journalist, said she was "fascinated by the different scenes portrayed," especially the drawings on Tibetan nomads.

"In these pictures I am captured by the faces of the people who seem to belong to ancient past times. It's incredible the way the artists have drawn the expressions of the protagonists," she said.
