Finally, What Confucius Looks Like.

Confucius was a famous Chinese thinker and philosopher whose teachings deeply influenced the East Asian life and thought.

But what does he look like? Now we know:

The China Confucius Foundation (CCF) on Saturday unveiled a standard portrait of ancient philosopher and educator Confucius in order to give him a single, recognizable identity around the world.

The draft sculpture was based on the painting of Confucius by Wu Daozi of the Tang Dynasty (618 – 907), together with advice from Confucian scholars, historians, artists and his descendants.
