In the Neolithic Age, there were colored sculptures in China. The painted sculpture of the goddess unearthed at Hongshan Culture site in Niuheliang, Liaoning Province is a relic of 5,500 years ago. According to Records of Historical Records Yin Benji, in Shang Dynasty, Di Yi was a puppet (that is, a clay sculpture portrait) and was called a god. During the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, Buddha statues prevailed, which promoted the development of colored plastic arts. There are a large number of painted Buddha statues in Dunhuang, Gansu, McKee, Tianshui, Huayan Temple in Datong, Shanxi and Shuanglin Temple in Pingyao. From the Eastern Jin Dynasty to the Five Dynasties, many famous color plastic painters appeared, including Dai Kui, Yang Huizhi, Fang Bian, Wang Wen and others. In the Song Dynasty, colored sculptures were gradually combined with folk customs and became decorative colored or clay toys. The colored sculpture Moro (the god of music in Buddhism) appeared in Bianjing (now Kaifeng, Henan) in the Northern Song Dynasty, which is an innocent and plump baby image with lotus leaves. It is worshipped and watched by Han people on the seventh day of July, which is an auspicious moment for women. Painted plastic artists in Song Dynasty included Tian Qi, Yuan Yuchang and others. Yuan Yuchang, a famous color plastic painter in the south of the Yangtze River, is "famous for plastic babies". He placed a reed whistle on the colored plastic baby. If he pressed his head (the top door), he could make the baby cry. In Lin 'an (now Hangzhou), Han folk colored sculptures are also very popular. There are children's hutongs in the community, and small workshops that are good at shaping clay children are concentrated. In the Yuan Dynasty, there was a general manager's office for craftsmen of various colors, and there was a Brahma image promotion department under it, which was dedicated to the creation of colorful Buddha statues, led by artist Anika and his disciple Liu Yuan. In the Ming Dynasty, colored sculptures in Jiangsu, Guangdong, Fujian and Tianjin also flourished and became an important part of people's cultural life. Jiangsu colored sculptures are mainly produced in Wuxi and Suzhou. Wuxi Huishan painted sculpture, also known as Huishan clay figurine. It turned out to be a Han handicraft made by farmers in Huishan area in their leisure time. During the Chongzhen period, clay figurines were already sold in Huishan's shops. During the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty, a professional clay figurine workshop appeared in Huishan. In the middle of the Qing Dynasty, due to the prevalence of Kunqu Opera and Huiban in the south of the Yangtze River, Huishan area began to make hand-made opera clay figurines with Kunqu Opera as the theme. From Tongzhi to Guangxu (1862 ~ 1908), Huishan clay figurines flourished, with more than 40 workshops and more than 30 professional craftsmen, such as Zhou Asheng and Ding. Suzhou is also a key producing area of Jiangsu colored sculptures, with themes of gods, flowers, fruits, animals and figures. In the late Qing Dynasty, China painted sculpture artists included Tianjin clay figurine Zhang Zhang Mingshan. Zhang Mingshan, who was born in a sculptor's family, is good at portraying all kinds of characters in opera and in reality. He is also good at depicting faces. His face and aperture are not only lifelike, but also lifelike, which makes the viewer sigh.
