Reviews





Tang Yijie (Professor, Department of Philosophy, Peking University, China) “Any nation, if it has a very long history and good cultural tradition,art will be the best one to re ect the cultural and mental situation of the nation. On the one hand, compiling and publishing A Collection of Song Dynasty Paintings is a good way to inherit and memorize the predecessors; on the other hand, it can be a very valuable contribution to the descendants. ”










 Fang Wen (An emeritus professor, on Art and Archaeology at Princeton University, US)“ It begins with the entity works on art history, which is a great symbolic project on rebuilding a Chinese cultural theory with the comparison of Chinese and Western cultures. ”










 Richard Bamhart (Professor, Yale University, US)“I believe that these two series of volumes on Song and Yuan paintings are likely to be of such great importance to later scholars and students of Chinese paintings as to be irreplaceable, and a permanent record of the art of a classical era. ”










Du Weiming (Research professor , Harvard University, US)“The Series of Paintings of Chinese Dynasties, published by Zhejiang University Press, are of important cultural missions and distinct significance of times."






Sugiyama Hiromiyuki (Director of Komori Image Technology Center,Japanese Komori Co., Ltd.) “These valuable cultural collections, which can’t be seen originally in one’s lifetime, now can be witnessed with the situation closest to entities by means of the replication technology of “Printing”. When we feel it’s hard to get these things, we think that reproductions themselves are of great importance of improving cultural value. Therefore, the Collection itself is a treasure. From the professional view of printing technology, it needs great technology and art attainment to photograph these meaningful entities carefully, and make them into electronic data, and then print the original colorswith printers. The exact image number which is used in the Collection (unit: 300lines/cm), makes the image so clear that the eyes can hardly  nd the faults,and represents natural color gradation and tone. It proves that the management of printers is excellent. At the same time, some key parts have adopted amplifyingmethods according to the original sizes, which can also meet the needs of seeing partly and entirely. A large passage represents the painting and coloring effect of all kinds of works. The printing effect is very good, and there is no difference among all groups of printings in terms of quality. ”
