Abstract

Fengxiang wood-engraving New Year pictures began in the Tang and Song Dynasties and flourished in the Ming and Qing Dynasties. They have a history of more than 500 years. Fengxiang wood-engraving New Year pictures are rooted in the farming culture, and are closely related to the traditional festival convention. The strong folk customs have created its unique artistic language. The picture of ten beautiful ladies is a distinctive New Year painting among Fengxiang wood-engraving New Year pictures. It is a beauty painting created based on the perfection spreading in the folk. It has bright and transparent colors, vivid shapes, and rich plant patterns, which represent women’s pursuit of life style in different periods during the agricultural period for hundreds of years. Therefore, it is of high artistic research value.
