Abstract

In the Tang Dynasty, Dunhuang and Zhongyuan both entered the prosperous period of fresco creation, and many Western painters came to Dunhuang and Zhongyuan to draw murals, which brought inevitable collision and blending with the original Zhongyuan native painting. However, due to the comprehensive factors of geographical position, cultural background and cultural inertia and so on, Dunhuang and Zhongyuan show their own different unique style of murals in the drawing methods and expressive results. This paper makes comparison and judgment of the related literature and the existing murals, attempts to sort out the similarities and differences of the Dunhuang frescoes and the Zhongyuan tomb murals in the Tang Dynasty in the artistic styles of line, color and shape after this blending, looking forward to giving some revelation and reference for the creation and development of Chinese modern heavy-colored paintings.
