The photographer stands directly in front of the exhibit, parallel to the display case, and captures the full view of the gold artifact at eye level to ensure a complete representation. Using a centered composition, the artifact is placed at the core of the frame, leveraging the reflective and transparent qualities of the glass to add depth to the visual. Background text and auxiliary exhibits serve as complementary elements to highlight the main subject. It is recommended to use a telephoto lens to magnify the texture and design of the artifact, clearly reproducing the luster and craftsmanship of the gold ornament and accurately controlling the proportional relationship between the exhibit and its surroundings, presenting the display scene authentically.
