The Song Dynasty was the heyday of the flourishing development of the art of flower and bird painting, and the flower and bird painting works of this period had major breakthroughs in both quantity and in the category of expressive subject matter. In the Paintings of the Song Dynasty, there are many excellent works created with the theme of birds, and the vivid and colorful images of birds are impressive.
Birds are an important part of flower and bird painting, and painting birds is inseparable from sketching. The painters developed a sacred and devout affection for the painting of flowers, birds and birds with both gods and gods. In order to observe the natural ecological conditions of the feathers, Yi Yuanji chiseled ponds and waterfowl behind his Changsha residence, "each cave window serves its dynamic and static state, in order to use the magic of the brush". Emperor Huizong of Song's palace also raised many rare birds and birds, which could be often observed and enjoyed, so that his flowers and bamboo feathers could be "transformed with gods and made with heaven and earth; allegories were given shapes, obtained at will, and built during the day".
