The tomb was discovered in an elementary school in Taiyuan, capital of Shanxi, in 2019 and later moved to the museum for protection and restoration.Defects in the murals such as fissures, hollows and blemishes have been fixed, and the tomb will open to the public in the future, said the Taiyuan Northern Qi Dynasty Mural Museum.Interestingly, various figures in the mural paintings appear to be making "V" signs with their middle and index fingers.
