Great Resource

This book is an excellent, easy to read and easy to carry resource for those interested in art, art history, and Chinese philosophy. It's particularly handy for anyone who wants to better understand Daoism, in general, and how it applies to Chinese painting, in particular.

great pictures

This book has great pictures in it and if you ever need Chinese names look in this book! I do not paint but I write and I was writing a story set in China and I found many great names but as I was looking for names I was attracted to the pictures and started to look more at them than the names for my characters.
