Features: Appreciating and learning Chinese painting cannot be separated from understanding the classic masterpieces in the history of painting. The history of Chinese painting is long and profound. Due to various reasons, the ancient paintings that have been passed down to this day are not only extremely rare in number but also scattered across the world. For this reason, we have compiled this series of "National Treasures Online," reclassifying the masterpieces of Chinese painting history according to elements such as subject matter, style, and technique, gathering the national treasure-level works together, printing them with meticulous care, and enlarging them as much as possible to their original size, providing learners with a first-class replica of the originals. Additionally, we have provided detailed introductions and analyses of each masterpiece included in the book, narrating the stories behind these treasures that have been passed down for millennia, and inserting photographs and materials of other related masterpieces, offering readers who love Chinese art a rich source of appreciation and reference materials. The ancient paintings included in this book are works from the "National Treasures Exhibition" jointly held by the three major museums—the Palace Museum, the Liaoning Museum, and the Shanghai Museum—in Shanghai. They were reproduced from the original works.
