Silk banners and hanging scroll paintings have been discovered dating back to the Han Dynasty (260 BC-220 AD). 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. Hanging scrolls are generally intended to be displayed for short periods of time, after which they are rolled up and tied for storage. They are traditionally rotated according to season or occasion, rather than on permanent display. Their artwork could be mounted with decorative brocade silk borders. The craft of creating a hanging scroll is considered an art in itself.
