Features: It can be said to be a trinity of "painting techniques," "painting theory," and "painting history," which is one of the important reasons why "Jieziyuan Huatuan" stands out among Chinese painting classics and is highly favored by scholars. "The New Jieziyuan Huatuan" inherits its fine traditions, and the "Insects and Grasses" section, illustrated by Xu Hongbin, well reflects the editor's intentions and principles. The book aims to teach techniques through illustrative examples, with hundreds of illustrations carefully selected from sketches of insects and grasses across the country and meticulously drawn stroke by stroke. The accompanying text is concise, fluent, and easy to understand; it combines painting theory with techniques, explaining complex concepts in a simple and logical manner, without resorting to sensationalism.
