教學參考chinese paintingchinese painting is generally divided by subject matter into four broad categories：figures，landscapes，flowers and birds，and bamboo and rocks.the first three categories succeeded each other in the summits of their developments，while the painting of bamboo and rocks became a casual pleasure of the educated elite from the 12th century on.before the han dynasty，founded in 202 b.c.，there was already a tradition of figure painting and portraiture of which remnants survive on later bronzes，jades，and pottery.during the han dynasty，the art of depicting figures became increasingly elaborate.rulers used didactic art to emphasize codes of government.surviving examples of stone engraving and wall painting show strong and lively drawing.
