td36285n Posted January 23, 2006 at 05:52 PM Report Share Posted January 23, 2006 at 05:52 PM Don't like it. 1.) Golden background is annoying. 2.) The girl's pale complexion is scary and forbidding. 3.) And when was the last time you saw a Chinese girl with eyes like that? I would not pay a lot of money to acquire this "painting".

deezy Posted January 23, 2006 at 06:16 PM Report Share Posted January 23, 2006 at 06:16 PM ^ I must agree that that is one of the most hideous paintings I have ever seen. And the girl reminds me of a ghastly grey a1ien. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stephanhodges Posted January 24, 2006 at 01:45 PM Report Share Posted January 24, 2006 at 01:45 PM What does '仕女' shì nǚ mean? If it's just the two words "official" and "woman", then could I ask why you used that phrase to search? I want understand how to find this type of association on my own.

skylee Posted January 24, 2006 at 01:56 PM Report Share Posted January 24, 2006 at 01:56 PM You have to learn these terms. The following is from an on-line Xinhua dictionary -> 仕女shìnǚ (1) [maid of honour]∶宫女 (2) [beauty]∶以美女为题材的中国画。也作“士女” 既画人物、仕女,也画山水、花鸟 (3) [noble woman]∶旧指贵族官僚家庭的妇女 And this is from the Lin Yutang Dictionary -> 仕女畫 Chin. painting of human figures Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stephanhodges Posted January 24, 2006 at 02:40 PM Report Share Posted January 24, 2006 at 02:40 PM I'm trying to learn the terms. Not sure what you mean by "these terms". Is there a classification or group of terms that this belongs to? I checked my local software dictionary and two other on line source dictionaries before I posted the question. Neither of them had an entry for this word. I'll add the links you provided to my list of dictionary links, however, I don't read Chinese yet (I know 25 characters so far), so I don't usually try and use a site entirely in Chinese. Thanks for the reply. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
