Lunar new year art shines
An exhibition about nianhua art at the National Art Museum of China traces the history of the traditional New Year paintings. Lin Qi reports.
When it comes nianhua, the traditional New Year paintings that the Chinese hang on walls and doors to seek blessings, many tend to portray a chubby child holding a big fish.
This is done to express the wish for the family line to thrive and prosper.
