The genre of ancestor paintings, first seen in the Ming dynasty (1368-1644), embodies the Confucian ideal of veneration of authority figures in all realms of life, including the family. Celebration of deceased family members was a part of Chinese culture as far back as the Bronze Age.

A compliment to many spaces, from traditional to Modern. less
