About Henan Illustration Sraith Léaráidí

Sraith de chúig léaráid is ea Léaráidí Henan atá bunaithe ar phictiúir thraidisiúnta Athbhliana adhmadghreanta Bhaile Zhuxian i gCúige Henan, an tSín. Athléiríonn an tsraith figiúirí clasaiceacha ó na priontaí seo i stíl chothrom lámhdhraeáilte atá feiliúnach do lucht féachana níos óige. Tarraingíodh línte na gcarachtar ar tháibléad le clár péinteáilte de láimh, agus ansin críochnaíodh na himill agus na dathanna i mbogearraí eagarthóireachta íomhánna. Cruthaíonn tonaí buí agus gorm ar an-sháithiú codarsnacht, agus tá léiriú aghaidhe difriúil ag gach figiúr. Is é an aidhm atá leis ná spéis an phobail a athnuachan i seanealaín tíre atá ag dul in éag.
