Features: Zhang Yiping said in the preface to the book "Notes on a European Journey": "We believe that art is the light and heat in culture. Painting and sculpture are the highest expressions of human spirit. For thousands of years in our country, artists have emerged one after another. The brilliance of the Tang and Song dynasties is now distant and unattainable. The decline of modern art is a source of sighs. Our national spirit has become extremely. Many overseas students envy the splendor of Western material civilization, and those who study art are even 'few and far between.' How can we bring about a Renaissance in Chinese culture and let our nation shine in the world? Those who eat beef abroad and use academia as a stepping stone have no hope. Those who regard academia as their life and dedicate their careers to its study are the ones with hope." This book is suitable for researchers or enthusiasts of painting art, Liu Haisu scholars or admirers, those who have traveled to Europe or are planning to do so, as well as students at all levels.
