Xi'an Chang'an Lantern Festival Illustration

Xi'an Chang'an Lantern Festival

Xi'an Chang'an Lantern Festival is an illustration series created for a cultural tourism project. The artwork depicts the Shang Yuan Lantern Festival as it was celebrated during the Tang Dynasty. The Lantern Festival began in the Western Han Dynasty more than 2100 years ago. The illustrations draw on lantern festival traditions of the Tang, Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties, and on classical paintings such as the Shengping Joy Picture and the Shangyuan Lantern Color Picture. The vivid scenes show the busy and festive life of the ancient celebration.
