Die chinesischen Neujahrsbilder (Nianhua) gehen auf die uralte chinesische Tradition der Neujahrsdekoration zurück. Neujahrsbilder sind eine faszinierende und beliebte Kunstform und nehmen innerhalb der traditionellen chinesischen Malerei einen eigenen Platz ein. Als Neujahrsbilder werden in lokalen Manufakturen hergestellte Bilder bezeichnet, die w hrend des chinesischen Neujahrs innerhalb und ausserhalb der Wohnungen angebracht werden. Unter dem Begriff Neujahrsbilder fallen alle zu diesem Zweck hergestellten Kunstwerke, die das Leben auf dem Land und in den St dten darstellen und von volkstümlichen Künstlern geschaffen oder in lokalen Manufakturen geschnitzt oder gemalt wurden. In diesem Band werden die wichtigsten Sujets der chinesischen Neujahrsbilder besprochen: Türg tter, Volksg tter, Kleinkinder und Sch nheiten, Brauchtum und Feiertage, Volkserz hlungen und lokale Opern. Die dargestellten Bilder werden mit kurzen Bildunterschriften erkl rt. Die meisten der in diesem Band zusammengestellten N

The art of clay figure modeling in China boasts a long history that dates back to the Neolithic Age (about 4,000 to 10,000 years B.E). For instance, some pottery pigs and sheep have been discovered at the 6,000 to 7,000-year-old Hemudu site in Zhejiang Province. And the life-size terra cotta warriors and horses unearthed in 1974 from the mausoleum of the First Emperor (259-210 BC) of the Qin Dynasty (221-206 BC) have been referred to as the "Eighth Wonder of the Ancient World." In fact, archaeologists have excavated a great number of pottery figurines, animals, chariots, and boats from the tombs of the following Han Dynasty (206 BC-AD 220). Naturally, the funeral custom of burying figurines and objects with the dead gave impetus to the development of clay sculpture at that time.

Ethnic architecture is mainly influenced by such factors as climate, environment,folk-customs, culture and history. Such architecture in China reflects the time period, the characferistics of the ethnic group, local and regional conditions as well as beliefs about life, all in combination with the natural environment. The structures are not only places for people to live, but also places for them to hold cultural activities. The architecture reflects the social concepts and aesthetic notions of the ethnic groups and due to its attention to ethic and conformity to rites and music it also expresses the national culture.
Beginning from the Neolithic Banpo Culture , China's ceramic industry has a history of over 6,000years. The earliest Neolithid earthenware with very few adornments mainly falls into three categories: storing,boiling and drinking vessels. By the late Neolithic Age, carving decorative patterns on the surface of earthen-ware became a common practice, and the burnished black pottery of the Longshan Culture~, which is as thin as eggshell, represents the highest technological level of baking earthenware at that time. The earliest glazed pottery appeared during the Shang Dynasty (c. 1600-1100 BC). Three achievements had been made in this period. Firstly, the combustion chamber, originally on one side, was built directly below the oven where earthen items were placed, thus heating the oven to a temperature of 1,18000. Secondly,as a result of the raised temperature, the white pottery made of kaolin and decorated with exquisite geometric and tao-tie~ designs were successfully baked. Finally, tile.invention of lime g
