Hello!

This is the English page of Muijz (Erik van den Muijzenberg). I am a contributor to the Dutch Wikipedia. Sometimes I add a link here to the corresponding Dutch article, or I correct a minor mistake. I used to do that anonymously, but on May 26, 2004 I got the message that there was a message for me. I clicked, and then I read this:

User talk:168.190.200.33
If you continue to post nonsense articles you will be blocked from editing. Maximus Rex 13:49, 21 May 2004 (UTC)

So, I checked the User contributions. But those weren't my contributions. (Wasn't my IP address either.) Weird. (Here are my anonymous contributions.)

Anyway, I decided to create an account. If you can read Dutch, you can check my Dutch Userpage too.

Cheers,
Muijz


Jadeite Cabbage
The Jadeite Cabbage, also known as Jadeite Cabbage with Insects, is a piece of jadeite carved into the shape of a head of Chinese cabbage, with a locust and a katydid camouflaged in the leaves. Created by an unknown sculptor in the 19th century, it was first displayed in the Forbidden City's Yonghe Palace, the residence of Consort Jin, who probably received it as part of her dowry for her wedding to the Guangxu Emperor in 1889. The Jadeite Cabbage is now part of the collection of the National Palace Museum in Taipei, Taiwan. It has been called the museum's "most famous masterpiece" and, along with the Meat-Shaped Stone and the Mao Gong ding, is considered one of the Three Treasures of the National Palace Museum.Sculpture credit: unknown; photographed by the National Palace Museum
