The origin of the name of Along the River During Qingming Festival

"The long scroll genre painting "Along the River During the Qingming Festival" painted by the Northern Song Dynasty painter Zhang Zeduan is an art treasure well-known both at home and abroad. Like the "Five Oxen Picture" created by Han Huan of the Tang Dynasty, it is known as the "national treasure" of the painting garden ". Its earliest collector was Song Huizong (Zhao Ji). The original "Along the River During the Qingming Festival" written by him in thin gold script and the Shuanglong small seal (the leisure seal of the Song Dynasty emperor, used for appreciating or collecting art works) can be proved. After the painting was completed, it was first collected in the imperial palace. After the fall of Bianjing in 1126 AD, all the valuable cultural relics in the palace, including this famous painting, were looted by the Jin people. The Jin people did not realize the value of this painting at first. Another 59 years passed, that is, the Jin Dynasty. In the twenty-sixth year of Emperor Sejong's reign (1186), Zhang Zhu of the Jin Dynasty was the first to write a postscript on "Along the River During the Qingming Festival" and quoted from Xiang's Commentary on Pictures, confirming that Zhang Zeduan of the Song Dynasty had "Along the River During the Qingming Festival" and "West Lake". The title of "Along the River During the Qingming Festival" was determined. "
