Summary
Research on the Mogao Caves' murals reveals that Taoist influences have significantly shaped Dunhuang's cultural and artistic evolution, particularly in the depiction of 'Flying Apsaras.' By analyzing changes in these figures across different periods, the study demonstrates how Taoism enriched Dunhuang's art and culture, suggesting deeper exploration of Taoist elements in future heritage studies. The findings highlight the profound impact of Taoism on the region's artistic style and cultural connotations.
