After a semester of art appreciation study, I appreciated many different types of works of art and painting styles in the East and the West, got a preliminary understanding of the development of the East and the West, and felt the characteristics and similarities and differences between the East and the West. The west regards man as the subject of artistic expression, and the subject is the character, which has always been the case. Therefore, in a person, the aesthetics of each era are different. For example, from Greek and Roman times to Raphael, Titian and Da? Finch, the human body represented by these people is very classic and complete. Botticelli shows the sense of rhythm, line and rhythm of the human body in many ways. Because of different times, everyone feels differently: for example, painters, Leonardo da Vinci's Mona Lisa and Van Gogh's self-portraits are all portraits, but they are completely different. The portraits they painted are very similar and have reached the peak of art, but everyone is different and there are great differences in each era. In addition, ancient western paintings are people-oriented, and trees and landscapes are only used as foil and background, which is secondary. Later, after independent development, there were independent paintings such as landscape paintings and flowers.

In every landscape, morning, evening and even the same object are different, which is very realistic. The composition of traditional Chinese painting is dominated by mountains and rivers, which are generally vertical. The mountains start from the bottom and go up layer by layer. Its composition is similar and can be summarized as four words: starting, bearing, turning and combining. The "beginning" usually starts with several trees, or a sand slope, or a stone, water or pavilion. After "getting up", there is another mountain to meet, which is called "Cheng". After "bearing", because it is very long, I adapt to this picture, and then change it, called "turning" and turn it around. Go to the end "close".

These are the four words of China's landscape painting composition. We look at things from a distance and from a middle perspective, because the distance is rich and overlapping, and the close view is monotonous.

Therefore, Chinese painting lies in the beauty of its artistic conception, which makes people memorable and wants to know what it is.
