While waiting at the gate, Han Gan used a stick to draw pictures in the dirt and was seen by the poet himself.

3 The Tang emperors were very fond of horses. This meant that the animal was a frequent subject for artists. At that time, the most common way to study horse painting was by copying the works of previous painters. Han Gan’s method, however, was different—he observed the animal itself. He was a frequent visitor to the royal stables and even moved in to live with the stable workers for quite some time. The horses, whether resting or on the move, offered him plenty of inspiration. The more time he spent observing these animals, the more his understanding of them grew. Day after day, Han Gan painted the horses, his brush presenting every detail that he saw with his own eyes.

The painting leaves a great impression on me. I think it shows the meaning of life. Each of the flowers is trying its best to grow and show its beauty, no matter which stage of life it is at. The painting gives me a deeper understanding of life.
给人留下深刻的印象
Han Gan, a wellknown artist in Tang Dynasty, is famous for his horses.He had his talent discovered by Wang Wei accidentally, who sponsored Han Gan to study painting and introduced him to a master. It was his talent and efforts that helped him serve the then emperor—Xuan Zong.
Han Gan broke away from the traditional way by drawing according to his observation. He frequently visited the stable or even lived with the stable workers for a long time, which enabled him to get inspiration from the movement of the horses.
Han Gan's works were highly valued because he highlighted the inner spirit and strength as well as the physical features through the burning eyes,bared teeth and kicking hooves. So vivid were the horses that it seemed as if they would gallop off the paper.
Role A: a tour guide to introduce Han Gan and background to visitors.
Thank You!
