masterpiece
📖 名著 = 名 famous + 著 written-work = a famous book, a masterpiece
名 means famous or renowned; 著 means a written work or to author. Together a famous written work, i.e. a masterpiece. Note 著 zhù here means a book or treatise, not the verb to wear (also written 着).
名 — evening 夕 + mouth 口
A compound ideograph: in the dark of evening (夕), one cannot recognize others by sight, so the mouth (口) calls out a name to identify oneself. The original sense of 'name' broadened to include reputation, fame, and a measure word for people.
