- The Essence of Chinese Paintings - Portraits of Beautiful Women As early as the beginning of the Warring States period from 475 BC, women were featured in Chinese paintings. Today, we have the chance to take a closer look at the paintings and the stories behind the ancient pieces that capture the appearance, clothing, adornments, and the demeanor of traditional Chinese women. As we can see, traditionally, a beautiful woman was one who was feminine and well-educated, calm and peaceful, caring and attentive to detail. Her movements were graceful, and her speech gentle.
