Chinese folk art is an important part of China's extremely rich culture. Each section of China had its own styles, and the entire output of art was enormous.
Chinese art, like Chinese literature, goes back many centuries. Early
themes were developed from religious and supernatural beliefs or from
the natural environment and landscape. Chinese paintings are generally placed in one of four categories : Religious, Portraits, Landscapes, or Flora and Fauna. Religious paintings usually represent Buddhas and Taos Gods.
The splendid traditional Chinese Bronzeware culture were created by the ancient Chinese slaves. The beautiful and complicated patterns on the Bronzeware reveal the
craftsmen's wisdom and superb skills. They reflect the essential
concepts of Chinese Slavery Society and are rare historical relics.
Porcelain, also called 'fine china', featuring its delicate texture,
pleasing color, and refined sculpture, has been one of the earliest
artworks introduced to the western world through the Silk Road. They were made in the form of all kinds of items, such as bowls, cups,
tea sets, vases, jewel cases, incense burners, musical instruments and
boxes for stationary and chess, as well as pillows for traditional
doctors to use to feel one's pulse.
Chinese jadeware has a long history. Jade objects of the Liangzhu Culture of the Neolithic Age were unearthed in Zhejiang Province,
and they appear delicate and beautiful. Jadeware production skills were
greatly improved in the Zhou and Shang dynasties, and jade objects of
that time include production tools, weapons, daily utensils, ornaments
and sacrificial vessels.
