This shadow puppet of a kneeling solder was designed based on the kneeling and shooting terracotta soldiers unearthed in Shaanxi province. With his face covered with painted make-up, this armor-clad soldier has a titled chignon, a left arm that moves freely and a right arm hidden behind a bronze shield decorated with taotie patterns.
