If Jingdezhen had not been closed at that time and lacked publicity, Mr. Da Fan's artistic attainments in figure painting could be comparable to those of all people at sea.

Partial appreciation

China porcelain painting is much more complicated than China paper-ink painting and western canvas painting in terms of process production and preservation time. The master of China porcelain painting, represented by Eight Friends of Zhushan, has long since passed away, and his works are rarely preserved, only those who are destined can get them. The artistic value and economic value of the collection will be higher. While the prices of China ink painting and western canvas painting are soaring, the unique porcelain painting in China will usher in a leap in value, and China, represented by Eight Friends of Zhushan, will be a great success. A discerning Tibetan friend will never miss this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
