A Historic Milestone for Pakistani Art on the International Stage

A masterpiece painted by the world-renowned Pakistani artist Jimmy Engineer in 2006, titled International Architectural Composition, was presented to the prestigious National Art Museum of China in Beijing as a gift to become part of its permanent collection.

The magnificent artwork, executed in oil on canvas and measuring 6 feet × 3 feet, was formally handed over by Jimmy Engineer and H.E. Ambassador Masood Khalid, Ambassador of Pakistan to China, during an impressive handing-over ceremony in Beijing.

Representing the National Art Museum of China, Deputy Director Professor Dr. Hu Wei and Deputy Director Ms. An Yuanyuan graciously received the painting.

This presentation marks a historic milestone, as it is the first time that an artwork by a Pakistani artist has been included in the National Art Museum of China's permanent collection.

This honour represents not only a significant achievement in Jimmy Engineer's artistic journey but also a proud moment for Pakistan, strengthening cultural ties and promoting the country's artistic heritage on the international stage.
