Wow! I think I could look at that for an hour, just looking at every tiny detail!
Great video as always. I am obsessed with ancient China. It’s nice to know how normal people lived instead of royals and nobles.
Thank you 🥰 Yes I find it very interesting too
I love the art history videos that you make. The Song dynasty was a fascinating period of cultural development. Thank you so much for explaining this beautiful work of art. I think your video is just as impressive as the Zhuang Yuan Mansion.
Thank you so much! Glad you like it!
Enjoyed this very much i felt like im there on a tour with you. Loved the details you gave made me realise how amazing the artists were
a video about Manchukuo or the tianjin concessions would be cool. i have lots of photos and videos of tianjin during the 1920s and 1930s on my channel.
Great video, this is one of my favorite paintings of all time, lovely narration of details :)
Might I ask what medium was used in the paintings. Were they smaller and hung like Western paintings or were they murals painted onto walls or room dividers?
Chinese always paint in scrolls.
@@armchairwarrior963 Thank you.
It's a scroll painting with pigments such as indigo & cinnabar. This Qing version is also made with Western pigments introduced during the Qing Dynasty
@@storyofhistoricalfigures9278 Thank you. I've always enjoyed these kinds of daily life paintings.
