註釋Based on modern Chinese paintings from the Robert H. Ellsworth Collection at the Metropolitan, this book explores the period from the 1860s to about 1980, when Chinese painting was transformed into a modern expression of its classical heritage, and deals with both traditionalist and modernizing Chinese masters from the comparative perspectives of East and West. Dr. Fong begins his exploration with the last revival of traditional Chinese art and the rise of a populist art in the late nineteenth and early twentieth century in Shanghai. His discussion continues with painters who absorbed the lessons of Western realism, which they viewed as part of Western science and technology. The work of traditionalist masters is also analyzed, followed by a discussion of painting by the second generation of artists and teachers, who developed their own schools of influence in their search for a new synthesis of Chinese and Western methods. -- Metropolitan Museum of Art website.
