“月份牌画”是上个世纪初产生于上海这个当时的半殖民地商埠的特殊艺术品种,后来推广到沿海各开埠城市,成为当时民间接受现代文明生活宣传的最大众化绘画出版物。 The “Monthly Paintings” was a special art variety that originated in the then semi-colonial commercial port in Shanghai at the beginning of the last century. It was later promoted to all the cities along the coast and became the most popular painting publication for civil society to accept the propaganda of modern civilization.
