• The decorative arts are extremely important in Chinese art, and much of the finest

work was produced in large workshops or factories by essentially unknown artists.

• Much of the best work in ceramics and textiles was produced by Imperial factories

and distributed on a huge scale to demonstrate the wealth and power of the

Emperors.

• The two main techniques in Chinese painting are Gong-bi (meaning "meticulous",

and using highly detailed brushstrokes that delimits details very precisely) and ink

and wash painting (also loosely termed watercolour or brush painting).

• Artists from the Han (202 BC) to the Tang (618–906) dynasties mainly painted the

human figure, while the time from the Five Dynasties period to the Northern Song

period (907–1128) is known as the "Great age of Chinese landscape."

• Chinese ritual bronzes from the Shang and Western Zhou Dynasties have exerted

a continuing influence over Chinese art.

• Large religious sculpture is nearly all Buddhist, dating mostly from the 4th to the

14th century.

• The Shang Dynasty ruled in the Yellow River Valley during the second

millennium, BCE.

• Tens of thousands of bronze, jade, stone, bone, and ceramic artifacts have been

obtained from the Ruins of Yin.

• While many Shang royal tombs have been raided, bronze vessels, stoneware and

pottery vessels, bronze weapons, jade figures, hair combs, and bone hair pins

were found at the intact Tomb 5 at Yinxu.

• Chinese bronze casting and pottery advanced during the Shang dynasty, with

bronze commonly being used for art rather than weapons. As far back as c. 1500

BCE, the early Shang Dynasty engaged in large-scale production of bronzeware

vessels and weapons.

• During the Zhou Dynasty the use of iron was introduced to China, China

witnessed the zenith of bronze-ware making, and written script evolved into its

modern form.

• Zhou art borrowed heavily from the Shang, as demonstrated by the practice of

casting inscriptions in bronze vessels and the design of the vessels themselves.

• Zhou art was also influenced by religious rituals and military instability.

• In the mid and late 3rd century BC, the Qin accomplished a series of swift

conquests, eventually gaining control over the whole of China and creating a

unified China.

• During its reign over China, the Qin Dynasty achieved increased trade, improved

agriculture, and revolutionary developments in military tactics, transportation and

weaponry, such as the sword and crossbow.

• Qin Shihuang, the self-proclaimed first Emperor, is responsible for the initial

construction of what later became the Great Wall of China, which he built along

the northern border to protect his empire against the Mongols.

• The Terracotta Army, consisting of more than 7,000 life-size tomb terracotta

figures of warriors and horses, was buried with Qin Shihuang in 210–209 BC to

protect him after death.

• Prime Minister Li Si standardized the writing system to be of uniform size and

shape across the whole country, having a unification effect on the Chinese culture

for thousands of years.

• An attempt to purge all traces of the old dynasties led to the infamous burning of

books and burying of scholars incident, which has been criticized greatly by

subsequent scholars.

• The early Western Han court simultaneously accepted the philosophical teachings

of Legalism, Huang-Lao Daoism, and Confucianism in making state decisions and

shaping government policy. However, the Han court under Emperor Wu gave

Confucianism exclusive patronage.

• During the Western Han period, grave goods were usually wares and pieces of art

that were used by the tomb occupant when he or she was alive. During the

Eastern Han period, new stylistic goods, wares, and artwork found in tombs were

usually made exclusively for burial.

• The Han Dynasty was known for jade burial suits.

• Timber was the chief building material in Han architecture. It was used for grand

palace halls, multi-story towers, multi-story residential halls, and humble abodes.

• Thatched or tiled roofs were supported by wooden pillars, since the addition of

brick, rammed earth, or mud walls of these halls did not actually support the roof.

Stone and plaster were also used for domestic architecture.

• Valuable clues about Han architecture can be found in Han artwork of ceramic

models, paintings, and carved or stamped bricks discovered in tombs and other

sites.

• From this time we begin to know about individual artists, such as Gu Kaizhi. Even

when these artists illustrated Confucian moral themes—such as the proper

behavior of a wife to her husband or of children to their parents—they tried to

make the figures graceful.

• Xie He—a writer, art historian, and critic in 5th century China—is most famous for

outlining six points to consider when judging a painting, taken from the preface to

his book, The Record of the Classification of Old Painters.

• The six elements that define a painting are: 1) Spirit Resonance, 2) Bone Method,

3) Correspondence to the Object, 4) Suitability to Type, 5) Division and Planning,

and 6) Transmission by Copying.

• Chinese calligraphy is a form of calligraphy widely practiced and revered in the

Sinosphere, which often includes China, Japan, Korea, and Vietnam.

• The various styles of calligraphy in the tradition adhere to a general

standardization. Chinese calligraphy and ink and wash painting are closely

related; they are accomplished using similar tools and techniques.

• In ancient China, painting and calligraphy were the most highly appreciated arts in

court circles; they were done almost exclusively by amateurs, aristocrats and

scholar-officials who had the leisure to perfect the technique and sensibility

necessary for great brushwork.

• Paper, invented in the 1st century, gradually replaced silk. Original writings by

famous calligraphers have been greatly valued throughout China's history; they

are mounted on scrolls and hung on walls in the same way that paintings are.

• Some of the most famous Chinese calligraphers, including Wang Xizhi, lived

during the Six Dynasties period.

• Wang Xizhi's most famous work is the Lanting Xu, the preface to a collection of

poems written by a number of poets who gathered at Lan Ting, near the town of

Shaoxing in Zhejiang province, and engaged in a game called "qu shui liu shang".

• The Six Dynasties generally includes the periods of the Three Kingdoms (220–

280 AD), the Jin Dynasty (265–420), and the Southern and Northern Dynasties

(420–589).

• Although relatively short, the period of the Three Kingdoms has been greatly

romanticized in the cultures of China, Japan, Korea, and Vietnam.

• The Jin Dynasty was known for its miniature models of buildings used to decorate

the tops of "soul vases", as well as for its celadon porcelain wares.

• Literature was particularly vibrant during the Southern Dynasty and tended to be

flowery and frilly, while Northern Dynasty literature was rougher and more

straightforward. The Chinese arts of poetry, calligraphy, painting, and music also

reached new heights during this time.

• From the Tang Dynasty (618–907) onwards, brick and stone architecture

gradually became more common and replaced wooden edifices.

• The earliest examples of this transition can be seen in building projects such as

the Zhaozhou Bridge completed in 605, or the Xumi Pagoda built in 636.

Nevertheless, stone and brick architecture is known to have been used in

subterranean tomb architecture of earlier dynasties.

• The tombs and mausoleums of imperial family members can also be counted as

part of the imperial tradition in architecture. These above-ground earthen mounds

and pyramids had subterranean shaft-and-vault structures that were lined with

brick walls.

• Figure painting reached the height of elegant realism in the art of the court of

Southern Tang (937-975).

• Buddhist painting and "court painting"—including paintings of the Buddha, monks,

nobles, etc.—played a major role in the development of painting.

• The landscape (shan shui) painting technique developed quickly in this period and

reached its first maturation.

• The painting of people also reached a climax. The outstanding master in this field

is Wu Daozi, who is referred to as the "Sage of Painting".

• Emperor Huizong was a renowned artist as well as a patron of the arts and his

court entourage included court painters, calligraphers, poets, and storytellers.

• In philosophy, Chinese Buddhism had waned in influence but it retained its hold

on the arts and on the charities of monasteries.

• Buddhism had a profound influence upon the budding movement of Neo-

Confucianism, led by Cheng Yi (1033–1107) and Zhu Xi (1130–1200).

• Different clothing styles distinguished peasants, soldiers, artisans, merchants,

• The shan shui style painting—"shan" meaning mountain, and "shui" meaning

river—became prominent features in Chinese landscape art. Distant mountain

peaks rise out of high clouds and mist, while streaming rivers run from afar into

the foreground.

• The Northern Song period (960–1127) was characterized by large, sweeping

landscapes, influenced by political ideals of bringing order to large societal issues.

• In contrast, the Southern Song period (1127–1279) was more interested in

reforming society from the bottom up and on a much smaller scale, and their

paintings similarly reflected smaller, visually closer, and more intimate scenes.

• The imperial courts of the emperor's palace were filled with his entourage of court

painters, calligraphers, poets, and storytellers. One of the greatest landscape

painters of the court was Zhang Zeduan, who painted the original Along the River

• Trends in painting styles among the gentry notably shifted from the Northern

(960–1127) to Southern Song (1127–1279) periods, influenced in part by the

gradual embrace of the Neo-Confucian political ideology at court.

• Chinese painting during the Song Dynasty reached a new level of sophistication

with further development of landscape painting. The shan shui style painting—

"shan" meaning mountain, and "shui" meaning river—became prominent features

in Chinese landscape art.

• Southern Song officials were more interested in reforming society from the bottom

up and on a much smaller scale. Hence, their paintings often focused on smaller,

visually closer, and more intimate scenes, while the background was often

depicted as bereft of detail as a realm without substance.

• This period began circa 57 BCE to 668 CE. Three Korean kingdoms, Goguryeo,

Baekje, and Silla vied for control over the peninsula.

• Korean artists sometimes modified Chinese traditions with a native preference for

simple elegance, purity of nature and spontaneity.

• Buddhism inspired the Goguryeo kings to begin commission art and architecture

dedicated to the Buddha.

• Baekje Buddhist sculpture is characterized by its naturalness, warmness, and

harmonious proportions exhibit a unique Korean style.

• The Silla Kingdom was the most isolated kingdom from the Korean peninsula

because it was situated in the southeast part of the peninsula. The kingdom was

the last to adopt Buddhism and foreign cultural influences.

• The Silla craftsmen were famed for their gold-crafting ability, which have

similarities to Etruscan and Greek techniques, as exampled by gold earrings and

crowns.

• The most notable objects of Silla art are its gold crowns; they are made from pure

gold and have tree and antler-like adornments that suggest a Scythe-Siberian and

Korean shamanistic tradition.

• Unified Silla was a time of great artistic output in Korea, especially in Buddhist art.

Examples include the Seokguram grotto and the Bulguksa temple.

• Bulguksa is a head temple of the Jogye Order of Korean Buddhism in the North

• UNESCO designated the Complex of Goguryeo Tombs as a World Heritage Site

because Goguryeo painting influenced a lot of art in East Asia, including the wall

murals of Horyu-ji in Japan.

• The murals portray Buddhist themes and provide valuable clues about the

kingdom, including its architecture and clothing. These murals were also the very

beginnings of Korean landscape paintings and portraiture.

• The inhabitants of Goguryeo wore a predecessor of the modern hanbok, just as

the other cultures of the three kingdoms. There are murals and artifacts that

depict dancers wearing elaborate white dresses.

• Goguryeo art, preserved largely in tomb paintings, is noted for the vigor of its

imagery. Finely detailed art can be seen in Goguryeo tombs and other murals.

Many of the art pieces have an original style of painting.
