2 Οκτ 2017 · The art of the Han dynasty (206 BCE - 220 CE) of ancient China is characterised by a new desire to represent everyday life and the stories from history and mythology familiar to all.
The different art styles that emerged from the Han Dynasty show us the rich history of the people who lived during this time. We'll uncover the history of the Han Dynasty and the ancient Han Dynasty art styles that came from this period in our guide below.
Age of Empires: Art of the Qin and Han Dynasties is a revelatory study of the dawn of China’s imperial age, delving into more than 160 objects that attest to the artistic and cultural flowering that occurred under Qin and Han rule. Before this time, China consisted of seven independent states.
The period of the Han Dynasty spanned more than four centuries and is considered a golden age in Chinese history during which a great deal of art was produced. The dynasty has been divided into the Western Han (206 BCE – 9 CE) and the Eastern Han (25–220 CE) periods.
After the civil war that followed the death of Qin Shihuang in 210 B.C., China was reunited under the rule of the Han dynasty, which is divided into two major periods: the Western or Former Han (206 B.C.–9 A.D.) and the Eastern or Later Han (25–220 A.D.).
Surviving Han paintings include chiefly tomb paintings and painted objects in clay and lacquer. A very early painting, a funerary banner from about 168 BC, excavated in 1972 at Mawangdui (馬王堆), reveals how sophisticated early Han and even late Zhou painting must have been.
