Inheritance pedigree of ceramic prints

Deng Bishan, a native of Yugan, Jiangxi, was a scholar in the late Qing Dynasty. From 65438 to 0892, with the inflow of western photography technology, Deng Bishan absorbed China's traditional porcelain painting and innovated constantly, creating the artistic field of porcelain painting figure painting. He first painted porcelain statues in Jingdezhen with nine squares, which laid a solid foundation for the development of porcelain prints later. Jiugongge is still one of the necessary tools for portrait painting on porcelain. Later, the new builder Wang Qi, from Deng Bishan, perfected the technique of portrait painting on porcelain and became the second generation. In the early years of the Republic of China, Nanchang Liang Dunshi became the third generation of porcelain printmakers. Under his leadership, Nanchang successively opened a number of porcelain printing shops. At the peak, there were as many as 300 people drawing pictures and more than 20 people painting portraits on porcelain. Up to now, this folk art has been passed down for six generations.
