Features: Chinese painting emerged during the Neolithic Age. From its maturation in the Sui and Tang dynasties to its flourishing in the Song dynasty, each period developed distinct painting forms, artistic styles, and techniques. Through the evolution, refinement, and innovation of generations of painters, Chinese painting has formed a unique art form with a strong national style, leaving behind countless masterpieces. For example, Yan Liben's "Procession under the Rainbow" features meticulously rendered clothing textures and vibrant yet elegant colors. Zhang Zeduan's "Along the River During the Qingming Festival" is even more renowned for its panoramic composition using the scattered perspective technique and its exquisite brushwork depicting the Bian River scenery, achieving lasting fame.
