Chinese art is visual art that originated in or is practiced in China,Greater China or by Chinese artists. Art created by Chinese residing outside of China can also be considered a part of Chinese art when it is based on or draws on Chinese culture,heritage,and history. Early "Stone Age art" dates back to 10,000 BC,mostly consisting of simple pottery and sculptures. After that period,Chinese art,like Chinese history,was typically classified by the succession of ruling dynasties of Chinese emperors,most of which lasted several hundred years. The Palace Museum in Beijing and the National Palace Museum in Taipei contains extensive collections of Chinese art.

Kiya was one of the wives of the Egyptian Pharaoh Akhenaten. Little is known about her,and her actions and roles are poorly documented in the historical record,in contrast to those of Akhenaten's 'Great royal wife',Nefertiti. Her unusual name suggests that she may originally have been a Mitanni princess. Surviving evidence demonstrates that Kiya was an important figure at Akhenaten's court during the middle years of his reign,when she had a daughter with him. She disappears from history a few years before her royal husband's death. In previous years,she was thought to be mother of Tutankhamun,but recent DNA evidence suggests this is unlikely.
