CGTN

00:50

Nianhua, also known as Chinese New Year paintings, are usually presented in the form of vibrant woodblock prints with a rich and storied history. Russia is home to a substantial collection of these Chinese nianhua woodblock prints, with Russians regarding them as invaluable cultural relics. This recognition has significantly contributed to the dissemination of nianhua woodblock prints beyond China. Watch an expert on nianhua woodblock prints illuminate the Sino-Russian people-to-people exchanges that unfold within the confined-yet-expressive space of these Chinese traditional artworks.
