Asian art encompasses a vast and diverse range of artistic traditions, styles, and cultural influences originating from the many regions of Asia, including East Asia (China, Japan, Korea), South Asia (India, Pakistan, Sri Lanka), Southeast Asia (Thailand, Vietnam, Indonesia), and Central Asia (Tibet, Mongolia).
