The Ching Ming (or Qingming) Festival is a Chinese festival that celebrates the imminent spring and commemorates the dead. During the festival the living take time to pray for their ancestors, sweep and clean their tombs and grave sites, and leave them offerings. The festival's origins date back to the eighth century, though it was more-recently suppressed by the Communist government in China for nearly sixty years before being reinstated in 2008. This traditional shoji screen depicts the masses out to celebrate the Ching Ming Festival. Hand-painted in watercolor and ink on silk, this beautiful image is sealed with a glistening, hand-lacquered finish that will long-preserve its wonderful rendering of a rich Chinese tradition.
