Abstract

As an artistic form that combined the poetry with painting, poetic painting originated in the Han Dynasty. Before the Tang Dynasty the poetry was mainly written on the Book of Odes and the Luoshen Appraisal. The Tang Dynasty, closer integration of poetry and painting, was an important period of giving birth to poetic painting. In the Song Dynasty poetic painting developed into great maturity. On one hand, the concept of blending poetry with painting was established that could be transformed into each other; on the other hand, the application of poetry into painting became a conscious behaviour of artists. The painter, Zhao Mengtiao, Ni Zan and others in the Yuan Dynasty truly led realistic painting into freehand brushwork, expressing the ideal of literati in their mind. The Ming and Qing Dynasties were the flourishing period of poetic painting. The poetic painting of the Ming Dynasty was more flexible and conscious but formal in selecting poems. Poetic painting in the Qing Dynasty basically followed the style of the Ming Dynasty, and paid more attention to the importance and inheritance of the art experience of former generation.
