Opened in August 1960, the museum is now also the city's Institute of Cultural Relics and Archaeology and the Gallery of Stone Reliefs on Ancient Chinese Tombs and Shrines from Han Dynasty. As a national first-rate museum and a national AAAA tourist destination among many other honors, the museum has done a lot in excavating, protecting, exhibiting, collecting and studying cultural relics.

Huang Shen (1687 - after 1768), whose courtesy name was Gongmao or Gongshou, and pseudonym was Yingpiaozi, was native of Ninghua, Fujian. As one of "Eight Eccentric Artists of Yangzhou", he was engaged in cursive script and adept at painting. He integrated the element of Huai Su's wild cursive into his painting, and created his own style. The Scroll Painting of Selecting Good Horses was his outstanding work in the transition period when Huang Shen began to form his own style as Shangguan Zhou's student.
