<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The Chinese artist and famous wood carver <b>Zheng Chunhui</b>, has earned the place of
having a spot in <b>Guinness Book of World
Records</b> with a carving he has worked hard on for 4 years! The creation of
art he has made is over 40ft </span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">long (2.286 meters
long, is 3.075 meters tall at its highest point, and 2.401 meters wide)
and made from just one single tree trunk. The scene
that the artist carved out is actually a famous Chinese painting '<b>Along the River during the Qingming
Festival</b>' which was created over 1,000 years ago.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The most
spectacular features of this carving is not just the whole length of Chunhui’s
artwork, but the details themselves. The carving contains specific features
like bridges, buildings, boats, and stunning 550 individually carved citizens.
His carving also strongly resembles the original painting as he didn’t add any
scenes from Modern-day China unlike other variations which added scenes from
the Ming and Qing times which is the tradition of contemporary Chinese artists
when they remake ancient masterpieces.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The original
painting was made by <b><span style="background-color: white; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial;">Zhang Zeduan
</span></b><span style="background-color: white; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial;">during
the<b> Song dynasty </b>and was dubbed the ‘<b>Chinese Mona Lisa</b>’ for its
fame<b> </b>and numerous remakes have been made ever since, but this is
definitely the most spectacular rendition, most would agree. The original
painting, ‘Along the River during the Qingming Festival’ was hand painted on a
scroll so that the viewers could slowly unravel the painting from right to left
at an arm’s length like a comic strip of the historical importance of the
day-to-day lives of the rich and poor Chinese people 900 years ago.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

as the world record last week on Thursday as a part of <b>Guinness World
Records Day </b>which was arranged to celebrate the day that the book of
records became the best-selling copyright book. Currently, Chunhui’s work is
displayed at the <b>Palace Museum </b>in <b>Beijing </b>which is the same
location where the original scroll painting is based. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
