Features: "Myriad Aspects of the Republic of China" series is not a rigorous historical work, not a detailed photographic reportage, not a chronological record with clear time lines, nor a literary portrayal of personal sentiments. "Myriad Aspects of the Republic of China" might be a combination of these, a potpourri. It is a collection of historical images of the Republic of China that we have extracted for readers, hoping they will come alive in their eyes and hearts, allowing readers to have a more vivid touch of the atmosphere of that era. During the Republic of China period, Chinese art, influenced by the trend of integrating Chinese and Western cultures, gave rise to new art forms such as oil painting, cartoon, and sculpture, and produced the works of numerous outstanding masters like Xu Beihong, Ye Qianyu, and Ding Cong. "Art of the Republic of China" is an anthology compiled from these painting elites and their masterpieces.
