Las estampas de a?o nuevo son una forma artística folclórica de mucho arraigo en China. Se trata de una variedad independiente de pintura tradicional que llama mucho la atención por su colorido. Por estampas de a?o nuevo se entienden las obras pintadas y pegadas en las fachadas e interiores de las residencias chinas en vísperas de a?o nuevo, confeccionadas por talleres locales de artesanía. Desde el punto de vista genérico, las estampas se refieren a toda pintura creada por artesanos folclóricos, reproducida a través de la escultura, que refleja la vida urbana y rural. Las estampas folclóricas de a?o nuevo de China no sólo son vistosas y ricas en contenido y formas de expresión, sino también en significación cultural e histórica. El presente libro divide la presentación de las distintas estampas en cinco grupos: dioses de la puerta, dioses folclóricos, ni?os y beldades, costumbres y festividades, y cuentos y representaciones teatrales. Todas las ilustraciones, cuya gran parte es obra de grande
