What is Chinoiserie, more than fashion and fantasy?

[Graymoths]

It is a shame that many people are not aware of such great cultural exchanges in the past. It is evident from the paintings depicted in this video, that two varying cultures of different origins can not only live together in harmony, but benefit by the sharing of knowledge.

I like to see that the bond between East and West exists; it assures me that mere differences in ways of thought are not significant enough to divide us. Great video.
