- Abstract
In late Qing Dynasty, Western knowledge was gradually introduced to China. Against this historical background, Huang Shiling lived in Guangzhou, a trading port city at that time, in different periods of his life, and absorbed many thoughts of foreign arts. His art of paintings and seal carvings was simultaneously affected by traditional epigraphy and Western photography and techniques and principles of painting and thus presented modern characteristics. The artistic form and spirit of paintings and seal carvings more fits modern aesthetics. It is a manifestation of the integration of personal aesthetics and the trend of the times and is closely related to the spreading of Western science and technology and artistic concepts at that time. Hence, it also has many characteristics similar to Western arts.
