Chinese silk banners and hanging scroll paintings have been discovered dating back to the Han Dynasty (260 BCE-220 CE). By the time of the Tang Dynasty in the 7th Century there was a standardized style and format to them, ranging from panoramic landscapes spanning multiple pieces side-by-side to single scrolls crammed with calligraphy. With the ascent of Emperor Taizu of Song in 960 cultural and artistic changes flourished, leading to innovations that were expanded upon greatly in the following Yuan Dynasty. One of the most important shifts was in the regular depiction of humans as opposed to animalistic and natural scenes, and often images were captured in a whimsically realistic style to portray both Empire-changing events as well as average day-to-day activities. Today the tradition continues in a myriad of forms, with some painters adhering to ancient protocol and others incorporating Western influences fluidly into their work.
