From Neolithic painted petroglyphs, early paintings on silk, and landscapes by twelfth-century literati to the traditional handscrolls being produced today, Chinese painting has always had the power to enthrall. This magnificent book, written by a team of eminent international scholars, is the first to recount the history of Chinese painting over a span of some three thousand years. Drawing on museum collections, archives, and archaeological sites in China—including many resources never before available to Western scholars—as well as on collections in other countries, the authors present and analyze the very best examples of Chinese painting: more than 300 of them are reproduced here in color. Both accessible to the general reader and revelatory for the scholar, the book provides the most up-to-date and detailed history of China’s pictorial art available today.

In this book the authors rewrite the history of Chinese art wherever it is found—in caves, temples, or museum collections. They begin by grounding the Western reader in Chinese traditions and practices, showing in essence how to look at a Chinese painting. They then shed light on such topics as the development of classical and narrative painting, the origins of the literati tradition, the flowering of landscape painting, and the ways the traditions of Chinese painting have been carried into the present day. The book, which concludes with a glossary of techniques and terms and a list of artists by dynasty, is an essential resource for all lovers of, or newcomers to, Chinese painting.

从新石器时代的彩绘岩画、早期的绢本绘画、12世纪文人创作的山水画，到如今仍在制作的传统手卷，中国绘画始终具有令人着迷的魅力。这本宏伟的著作由一批杰出的国际学者共同撰写，是首部追溯中国绘画约三千年历史的典籍。作者们利用中国的博物馆藏品、档案资料和考古遗址（包括许多西方学者此前从未接触过的资源）以及其他国家的收藏，呈现并分析了中国绘画中最杰出的作品——书中收录了300多幅彩色 复制品。无论是普通读者还是学者，都能从中获益，它提供了当今最前沿、最详尽的中国绘画艺术史。

在这本书中，作者们重新梳理了中国艺术的历史，无论其存于洞穴、寺庙还是博物馆藏品中。他们首先让西方读者了解中国的传统和实践，本质上是在展示如何欣赏一幅中国绘画。随后，他们阐释了诸如古典绘画与叙事绘画的发展、文人传统的起源、山水画的兴盛以及中国绘画传统在当代的传承方式等主题。本书最后附有技法与术语词汇表以及按朝代排列的艺术家名录，是所有中国绘画爱好者或新手的必备资源。
