Features: The ten-volume "20th Century Chinese Literary and Art Visual Chronicle" published by Shenyang Publishing House constructs a century of literary and artistic history through images and texts, capturing the brilliance and vicissitudes of a century on white paper and black ink, freezing spectacular moments. In the volumes on fiction, new poetry, drama, fine arts, music, and other genres, young photography also occupies a prominent place with its rapid development and significant achievements. The standalone "Photography Volume" is an affirmation and praise of photography, as well as an encouragement to generations of photographers. The "Photography Volume" traces the development of 20th-century Chinese photography in the form of images and texts, showcasing the classics of a century of Chinese photographic works, and telling the stories of photographers' lives and creations. This volume is not a history of a century of photography, nor is it a history of a century of images. During the selection process, the editors did not seek records of every major historical event from the perspective of history or photographic history, but rather focused on the images themselves. The "Photography Volume" includes the works of 97 outstanding photographers over the past century, along with over 300 of their classic pieces, accompanied by their creative experiences and brief personal biographies.
