What kind of painting does the door god painting belong to?

Door child painting is one of the traditional folk crafts of Han nationality.

Originated in ancient China, some things are incomprehensible, and regarded as a magical force, which is closely related to people's daily life and cannot explain scientific truth.

Then there is the earliest image of the door related to people's lives painted on the door to ward off evil spirits (Fu Tao is the earliest door god painting, which spread to the Tang and Song Dynasties). Later, not only engraving but also writing became the origin of Spring Festival couplets. With the later economic and cultural development and the further prosperity of China traditional culture, as well as the invention and application of block printing, the original Fu Tao or Spring Festival couplets were carved and made into printed New Year pictures (Spring Festival couplets, etc. ), the output, form and content are becoming more and more abundant.

The painting of "The Back Door God" has local characteristics and various schools, involving all aspects of life, expressing the good wishes of the working people in China to ward off evil spirits and eliminate disasters and welcome good luck.
