Detail

Discover the serene beauty of traditional Chinese painting. This postcard collection features 26 classic bird-and-flower paintings with bilingual Chinese-English text, offering both visual enjoyment and cultural insight.

Bird-and-flower painting is one of the three major traditional Chinese painting genres. Its subjects extend far beyond birds and flowers to include fruits, vegetables, insects, and aquatic life. Gaining independence as a genre after the Five Dynasties period, it reached its aesthetic peak during the Song Dynasty. Masters like Cui Bai, Emperor Huizong, Li Song, and Wen Tong transformed these paintings into objects of artistic appreciation and sources of understanding the natural world. Yuan literati expressed their inner spirit through the “Four Gentlemen” motif, while Ming and Qing artists brought both freehand and fine-brush styles to their fullest expression.

More than a set of postcards, this is a window into how ancient Chinese viewed nature and engaged with the world.
