What's the difference between oriental illustration and western illustration?

The so-called Dongfeng illustration should refer to Japanese and Korean illustrations and China illustrations; Western illustrations refer to European and American illustrations.

Any style and change of illustration is the embodiment of a society in a certain period, which is closely related to the country, region, humanities and economy.

China's example: China has a vast territory and rich natural resources. In fact, there were illustrations in ancient times, such as plant sketches in Compendium of Materia Medica, inserts in The West Chamber, small paintings by Feng Zikai and so on. Even the old Shanghai New Year pictures during the Republic of China and the posters during the war are special illustrations. China people are a reserved people, so they pay more attention to the implication and taste in illustrations, and their skills are good.

Japanese and Korean illustrations: The prototype of Japanese illustrations should come from Ukiyo-e, but now Japanese illustrations are mostly cartoons developed locally. Korean illustrations have been developed in recent years, and they like to pursue bright colors and beautiful and simple compositions, and most of them are commercial illustrations.

European and American illustrations: they have a long history and different styles. For example, there are many patterns in the Renaissance, which are very representative. There are obvious differences in figures' illustrations in different periods, such as distorted satire and humor, realism and the pursuit of muscle structure. However, one of the characteristics of European and American illustrations is that children's illustrations are developing very well. You have to admit the childlike innocence and rich imagination of European and American illustrations, including Russian illustrations.
