"Along the River During the Qingming Festival" (清明上河圖) is a famous Chinese painting by the artist Zhang Zeduan, created during the Song Dynasty (960–1279 AD). The painting is a panoramic scroll, often referred to as "China's Mona Lisa," that vividly depicts the bustling life along the Bian River in the capital city of Bianjing (present-day Kaifeng) during the Qingming Festival.
The painting captures a wide range of activities and scenes, showcasing various aspects of urban and rural life. It includes images of merchants, craftsmen, farmers, and scholars, as well as animals, buildings, and landscapes. The level of detail in the painting is remarkable, providing a fascinating glimpse into the daily life, architecture, and culture of Song Dynasty China.
