Abstract

The Riverside Scene at Qingming Festival created by Zhang Zeduan, a renowned painter of the Northern Song Dynasty, is one of the ten famous paintings of China handed down from ancient times. It depicts the landscapes on both sides of Bianhe River in Kaifeng and suburbs, showing the bustling commercial streets of Kaifeng and the prosperous life of people in Northern Song Dynasty. Undoubtedly, Kaifeng City in Northern Song Dynasty is one of the most attractive cities in ancient China. The implementation of street market system in Northern Song Dynasty promotes the development of commodity economy, making Kaifeng City at that time acquire a completely new outlook. It may be called the rudiment of the modern commercial street. Therefore, the analysis on landscape characteristics of commercial streets in the Northern Song Dynasty through the street landscape inside and outside Kaifeng City at that time depicted on the Riverside Scene at Qingming Festival can provide useful reference and enlightenment for the present commercial streets that all follow the same pattern.
