Do you know about Thang-ga? It’s a special kind of wonderful painting. Thang-ga is found only in Xizang, China now. So it’s not difficult to imagine that Xizang is known for it.
Thang-ga started from the Tang Dynasty and was developed in the 7th century. Thang-ga paintings show the Tibetan people’s everyday lives. In recent years, the Thang-ga painting has caught the public’s attention because of its special forms of traditional Tibetan culture. At the same time the Chinese government has been trying hard to protect the art form so that it won’t be lost.
The colors of Thang-ga paintings look lively and special. Because of the special environment of Xizang and the excellent skills of the artists, the paints (颜料) used in Thang-ga paintings are different from other paints. Traditional Thang-ga paints were made from minerals (矿物质) as well as some kinds of plants. And such paints were made by hand and the beautiful colors could last for hundreds of years. So this kind of art product is even more valuable.
However, compared with the paints used for making Thang-ga paintings, cheap and easily-made chemicals (化学制品) are more often used to make them nowadays. One of the most important reasons for this is that making traditional paints takes much more time. Another important reason is that they were made in many secret ways in old times. As time went by, people stopped making the paints and forgot how to make them. So, the skills needed to make traditional paints have been almost lost. As a result, the traditional Thang-ga paints are difficult to find now.
