Traditional Chinese painting is the art of painting on a piece of Xuan paper or silk with a Chinese brush that was filled with black ink or colored ink. It is regarded as one of the "three quintessence (精华) of Chinese culture", the other two being traditional Chinese medicine and Beijing Opera.
As we know, traditional Chinese painting can be divided into three types—figure painting, landscape painting, and flowers and birds painting.
Figure painting came into maturity as early as the Warring State Period (475 B.C.–221 B.C.) and reached its peak (顶峰) during the Tang Dynasty (618–907). Famous figure painting artists include Gu Kaizhi and Wu Daozi.
Landscape painting, as the name indicates, describes the outside scenery. It first appeared in the Qin Dynasty (221 B.C. – 206 B.C.) and became an independent genre during the Sui (581 – 618) and Tang dynasties. By the time of Song Dynasty (960 – 1279), it had reached a very high level.
Flowers and birds painting focuses on the drawing of flowers, birds, animals, fishes, and insects, in their natural state. It came into being in the Northern and Southern Dynasties (420–589) and became a mature art during the Song Dynasty.
In a finished works of traditional Chinese painting, inscriptions, poems and stamps often come side by side. Therefore, traditional Chinese painting is an art form combining (结合) poetry, calligraphy, painting and seal carving (雕刻).
Its artistic achievement and national features have won recognition of the people all over the world.
