Features: Indeed, history is not only the history of great achievements but also the history of daily life. Without ordinary life, the great achievements of heroes would not appear or be understandable. The history of art has always been, and will always be in the foreseeable future, the history of aesthetic taste. The history of art criticism primarily focuses not on the personality of ordinary people but on the individual characteristics of artists.
