Chinese Painting China can boast of a succession of great painters for the past twelve centuries,with some worthy of note who lived and worked much earlier.As Chinese writing is,in its earlier form,merely a kind of pictorial representation of ideas,writing and painting developed together,and the distinguished penman is usually also a painter of note.By the end of the third century BC painting was a developed art,as distinct from writing,and since that time several schools have flourished and given place to later developments. 公元前三世纪末叶，绘画发展成为一门与书法完全分开的艺术， 并且从那时起，许多书法流派经历了兴衰

It is unnecessary to go into a history of the art,which followed about the same periods of advancement and decline as porcelain making.Developed without any outside influence,Chinese painting is entirely different from European,and foreigners,until they adapt themselves to the Chinese point of view,find in it much to be desired.Chinese painting is an art of lines,rather than of colors and one in which imagination and poetry are more important than technical details. Landscapes,the symbolic figures of Buddhism and Taoism and famous figures of Chinese history make up the principal subjects of the pictures.The painter always strives for harmony of composition and subtlety of conception.If a beautiful female character is to be portrayed,she must be surrounded by graceful animals,billowy clouds or swaying reeds,If it is a stern warrior who makes up the principal figure in the picture,the artist will probably paint massive mountain peaks in the background.The first thing the foreigner notices in Chinese paintings is the lack of perspective.The Chinese reply to this criticism is that it is unreal and therefore inartistic to represent space and distance on a flat surface where it cannot exist. 1.风景，佛教及道家的代表人物，以及中国历史上的著名 人物构成绘画的主题

Although the best specimens of Chinese paintings do not command the prices paid for the best porcelains and bronzes,there are many which are valued at tens of thousands of dollars.Very often this value is determined not so much by the quality of the painting itself as by the history of the painting itself.It is the custom for owners of pictures to inscribe on the margins,poemsor epigrams the pictures have inspired.In a famous collection one will often see pictures which are embellished by the poems or comments of a half dozen men famous in different centuries.Thus the picture acquires a great value through historical association.One may be able to visualize this by conjecturing the value of a Ruben painting which had been in the possession of Queen Elizabeth,Shakespeare,Washington, Napoleon and Queen Victoria and embellished by the comments and autographs of each of the famous owners. 绘画的年代通常比绘画的质量更能决定其价值

All Chinese paintings are on silk or paper scrolls,rolled and stored in cabinets.The affinity between pictures and writing is exemplified again in this for paintings are preserved like books.Instead of being hung on walls as part of the furniture of a house,they are put away and only brought out for the edification of those who are especially interested.It is for this reason that many fine Chinese paintings hundreds of years old appear by the freshness of the colors to have been painted but yesterday. 绘画没有被当作房间的摆设挂在墙上，而是被收藏起来， 只是为了那些对此特别感兴趣的人的鉴赏才被拿出来
