56 Ethnic Groups in China: Paintings by Dai Dunbang (Discovering China)

56 Ethnic Groups in China introduces the various ethnic groups that together contribute to the rich culture and diversity of the Chinese nation.

The styles and features of each group are revealed through detailed observation of characteristics, customs and habits, apparel and accouterments. This album features composed and fluent lines, precise shapes, and realistic vividness through such techniques as line-drawing, outlining and detail-adding as well as the application of both ink and colors. A panorama of Chinese ethnic groups appears through the combination of detail drawing and freehand brushwork, as the artist captures each group's distinct and fascinating characteristics.
