Features: The Ming and Qing dynasties, as the two last ruling periods of China's feudal society, exhibited three major common characteristics of the era: literati painting becoming the mainstream in the art world, the literaryization of craft art, and the infiltration of secular interests. The early, middle, and late stages of the Qing Dynasty also allowed art to display different period-specific features such as the inheritance and expansion phase, the flourishing and diverse phase, and the modern-transformation phase. At the same time, it possessed four major common characteristics of the era: summative, latent variability, deepening, and transcendent. The developmental trajectory and common characteristics of Ming and Qing art are also an important reflection of the overall features of China's major historical transformation from an ancient feudal society to modern society. Based on theoretical analysis, this book comprehensively and thoroughly introduces the development and achievements of art during the Ming and Qing periods, providing learners and researchers with detailed and rigorous materials.
