The comparison between them is still an attractive project for modern researchers, and the temptation is becoming stronger with the increasingly popular atmosphere of interdisciplinary research. The study of comparison Han Fu and Han Paintings can be divided into three directions: the first one is the comparison of artistic expressions, such as making textual research on physical images and describing the features of “depicting objects and portraying appearances, luxuriant as carved painting” (写物图貌, 蔚似雕画). The second one is the connection on the creation background, such as the change of artistic spirit and the progress in literary concept. The third one is the relation of cultural history, which is also a trend of recent research, such as the specific reflection of Han Fu and Han Painting on the system and regional culture of the Han Dynasty. All research followed the tradition of “mutual verification between literature and history”.
