Although painting was not invented in China it was important to Chinese culture. The Chinese regaurded it as the one true art with its close relation to calligraphy. They created paintings for poetic and philosofical purposes. They created portraits too. There were also religious paintings and paintings of objects.
that and thats how they wrote too. good job though

ReplyDeleteWow! I didn't know that painting wasn't invented in China. I would have guessed so by their early writings and portraits
