The XXIV Winter Olympics came to a successful conclusion, but the Olympic spirit of "mutual understanding, friendship, unity and fair competition" behind this event will always remain in our hearts.

Ming Dynasty painter Wang Chen's "Treading on Snow in Search of Plums" depicts the hermit's elegant deeds of searching for plum blossoms in the mountains during the cold winter. Master Cui Ruzhuo used a huge eight-strip screen of nearly 300 square feet to form "Huanrui Snow Yi Jiangnan" to depict a silver-clad snowy earth, dotted with red plums to set off the vitality. Master Cui painted the purity of snow and the proud bones of plum on paper with detached feelings. Magnificent and simple, it not only highlights his profound traditional skills, but also presents his unique artistic personality.

On the basis of Cui Ruzhuo's ink accumulation technique, Cui Ruzhuo's disciple Xin Jiafeng introduced new and innovative ink accumulation to add new colors to the development of Chinese painting. Xin Jiafeng kept in mind the teaching of his teacher Cui Ruzhuo: In the process of inheriting Chinese painting, we should not be confined to one corner and cling to one end. It is necessary to incorporate the nutrition of the elements of the new era into the creation. At the important historical moment when Xin Jiafeng became the first city of the Two Olympics in Beijing, China, inspired by the "Great Wall of Ice and Snow" with chinese elements on the Winter Olympic Track, he created the "100 Snowy Pictures of the Great Wall" to present the glorious era!

"The artist Xin Jiafeng's use of the Great Wall of China as an element of artistic creation to present to the world in the form of traditional Chinese paintings is also of great milestone significance.
