Since Gu Kaizhi of the Jin Dynasty, over a thousand years have passed, with numerous schools and renowned painters emerging. Unfortunately, we still lack a systematic and comprehensive work that introduces the history of painting and painters. To fill this gap and allow readers to gain a more detailed understanding of Chinese painting civilization and its painters, we have compiled this large series of books. The series is divided into two parts: Ancient and Modern. The ancient section includes painters from Gu Kaizhi and Wu Daozi to Wang Wei, followed by the masters of the Song, Yuan, Ming, and Qing dynasties, totaling over 60 painters, with each painter (or a group of 2-3) having their own volume. The modern section includes Qi Baishi, Huang Binhong, Pan Tianshou, Zhou Sichong, and others, totaling over 30 painters, with each painter having their own volume, edited by Lang Shaojun and Zhang Zhixin. This series is published in large 32-page hardcover with full-color copperplate printing, including the painters' life stories, artistic journeys, painting styles, discussions on art, critiques from various scholars, chronologies, and catalogs of their masterpieces. It also includes a large number of photographs of the painters' lives and work, as well as nearly 200 paintings, providing detailed and richly illustrated content. It is both academically rigorous and highly readable, making it an invaluable source for experts and scholars studying Chinese painters. (Particularly the volumes on Li Liufang, Cheng Mengyang, Mei Qing, Chen Banding, and Tao Lengyue are works that fill gaps in the history of painting.) It is also an excellent choice for young people and art enthusiasts to understand Chinese painting art. This book presents the life story of Master Pan Tianshou and showcases his artistic achievements.
