    							Introduction
						
							This book features over 160 works by Qi Baishi housed in Rongbaozhai. Qi Baishi advocated that art lies "between the similar and the dissimilar," featuring broad strokes and excelling particularly in depictions of fruits, vegetables, flowers, birds, insects, and fish, while also encompassing figures and landscapes. He was renowned alongside Wu Changshuo, sharing the reputation of "Southern Wu and Northern Qi." His art is imbued with a strong sense of local culture, a simple peasant consciousness, and a naive, romantic childlike spirit, all of which contribute to the poetic essence of Qi Baishi's work. The vibrant and bright colors, the strong contrast between ink and color, and the rustic, naive forms and brushwork serve as Qi Baishi's unique artistic language and visual style, representing the external vitality of his art.
