Chinese painting has a long history. Painted on silk before the Song Dynasty, the materials were expensive. Therefore, the themes of China's traditional paintings are mostly portraits or life records of court nobles. It was not until the Song and Yuan Dynasties that the improvement and popularization of paper materials and the rise of literati painting made the themes and techniques of Chinese painting diversified, and the poems on paintings were the beginning of the homology of painting and calligraphy.

Murals can be said to be the most primitive painting style. The earliest murals were found in a cave in France, so sometimes murals are also called cave paintings. At the end of prehistoric times, murals became a kind of architectural decoration and interior decoration. The rebellious graffiti of urban teenagers is also one of the murals.

Extended data:

Chinese painting embodies the traditional philosophy and aesthetics of the Chinese nation in terms of observation and understanding, image shaping and expression techniques. In observing and understanding objective things, we adopt the method of seeing the big from the small and seeing the big from the small, and observe and understand objective things in activities, and even directly participate in things, rather than appearing locally or being limited to a fixed point.

When oil painting was first introduced to China from the west, its main forms were realism, figuration and realism. At that time, modernism had prevailed in Europe, and realistic oil painting had begun to be suppressed. China people can choose realistic oil paintings with classical colors and modernist oil paintings with radical colors.

The vitality of mural painting lies in its modernity and publicity, which directly faces millions of people. Murals should be the strong voice of the times. The individual mural artist should be integrated into the self of serving the public, contribute to the public with a strong sense of responsibility and masterpieces, and find and establish his own independent artistic personality.
