A Comparison Between Chinese and Western Paintings

Both Chinese and Western paintings have a wide range of contents. The book aims to help readers gain an understanding of the Chinese painting and the cultural content that lies behind the Chinese painting. However, limited by the length of writing, the author focuses on the traditional Chinese paintings and European paintings in the 19th century and before.
The fundamental difference between western and traditional Chinese paintings is the one between focus and scattered-points perspective. This author compares the two kinds of paintings in a scattered-points way according to a Chinese scattered-points perspective.
