Sui and Tang Dynasties
In the Sui and Tang Dynasties, "the gentleman is in school, a hundred workers are in art, and three generations of Li Han, to the Tang and prepared. In particular, paintings and sculptures are brilliant. In terms of paintings, Zhou Yi and Zhang Wei’s official paintings in the Tang Dynasty marked the further improvement of figure paintings. Landscape paintings have become free from the subordinate status as a background of figure paintings and become an independent painting.
The paintings of the landscape of the exhibition, "You Chun Tu", is the world's first landscape-themed painting, Li Sixun's Jinbi landscape, Wang Wei's ink landscape, Wang Qi's splashing landscape, has formed a Chinese painting landscape painting. The rudiment of the Northern and Southern Schools. The cranes of the Tang Dynasty, the peacocks of the borders, and the flamboyant flowers of the bamboos also indicate that flower and bird paintings have begun to rise.
The most striking sculptures of the Sui and Tang dynasties are the carvings of the tombs. Zhaoling Stone Carvings The group's relief statues depicting Li Shimin's six horses before his death (known as "Zhaoling Six Jun") are finely crafted, accurate in shape and vivid in shape. They are masterpieces in the history of Chinese sculpture.
Liaojin Xixia
Liao, Jin, and Xixia are the countries established by the northern Chinese nation, controlling North China from the 10th to the 13th century until Kublai Khan unified China. Traditional Chinese historiography was orthodox in the Song Dynasty and did not care about the northern regime. However, they painted in China.
The influence of the history of painting should be emphasized and studied in depth.
The Liao Dynasty began in the chaos of the late Tang Dynasty, on the occasion of the Five Dynasties and the Ten States, and later with the Northern Song Dynasty. In terms of artistic expression, there are not many artworks handed down. However, through the important tombs unearthed in recent years, such as Liaoqing Mausoleum, Princess Chen Guo Tomb, and Ye Maotai Liao Tomb, we have learned more about Liao Dynasty art. To a certain extent, the Liao Dynasty art inherits the style of the Tang Dynasty art more than the Song Dynasty art and has the simple and honest temperament of the northern Qidan.
After the Jin Dynasty was in the Liao Dynasty, after the Northern Song Dynasty, it confronted the Southern Song Dynasty. Since the Jin Dynasty received the capital of the Northern Song Dynasty, Beijing, and changed to Nanjing, it can be speculated that a large number of the Northern Song Dynasty's internal collections entered the court of gold, greatly improving the cultural and artistic qualities of the royal family.
The most famous emperor is Jin Zhangzong. Not only does his calligraphy deliberately imitate the thin gold body of Emperor Huizong of the Song Dynasty, but he also learns the internal collection mechanism of Xuan and the year. Its collection and printing is an important basis for the identification of ancient paintings by future generations.
The history of Chinese paintings by the Jin Dynasty painters is often overlooked, but European and American scholars have long discovered that many of the famous Song Dynasty landscape works in ancient paintings and calligraphy may be made by the Jin people. Nowadays, the painters with their names, such as Wu Yuanzhi, Li Shan, Wang Tingyi, etc., their landscape paintings, compared with the works of the Southern Song Dynasty painters, seem to show the taste of “literati”.
Ming Dynasty

In the early Ming Dynasty, the court painter undertook the style of the Southern Song Dynasty, called the "Zhe School" (representing the painters Dai Jin and Wu Wei). Although it was degraded by the late Ming Dongchang and others, it has a wide range of influences, such as Japan and Vietnam. After the inheritance of folk painters, today's temple murals in Taiwan are still a continuation of the Zhejiang faction.
On the other hand, the literati's bureaucrats used the Yuan four as the learning object and later appeared as the "Wu School" (the representative painter is Shen Zhou, Wen Zhengming, Tang Yi, Qiu Ying), and the two major factions of the Zhejiang School as the Ming Dynasty. Because the late Ming Dynasty advocated the Wu faction and lowered the Zhejiang faction, the Wu faction became the mainstream of landscape painting in Chinese traditional painting. The influence continued until the early years of the Republic of China. Even the painting education of the National Government moved to Taiwan was still based on Wu painting.
