回顾中国百年的油画历史,从历史上的“幼童”到“庚款”留学生再到50年代的留苏和改革开放后的前往西方学习是在几代留学生的跨洋寻梦中进行的。20世纪初期,由于经济和地理上的原因,大多数留学生先后选择日本和欧洲为目的地。因此,早期的中国油画家主要受到了日本油画和欧洲油画的影响,而当时的日本油画主要学习和吸收了印象主义外光画派而形成了具有自己地域特色的油画风格,欧洲则主要是以法国的印象主义和现代诸多流派为中心影响着世界画坛。因此,早期的中国油画就直接或间接的受到了印象主义绘画的莫大影响。 Looking back at the past 100 years of oil painting history in China, studying from the history of “young children” to “Geng-hegai” students to the Soviet Union in the 1950s and to the west after the reform and opening up took place in the transatlantic dreams of several generations of students ongoing. In the early 20th century, due to economic and geographical reasons, most of the overseas students chose Japan and Europe as their destinations. Therefore, the early Chinese oil painters were mainly influenced by the Japanese oil painting and the European oil painting, while the Japanese oil paintings at that time mainly learned and absorbed the Impressionist light painting and formed their oil painting style with their own geographical features. In Europe, French impressionism and many modern schools are the center of the world painting scene. Therefore, early Chinese oil paintings were directly or indirectly influenced by Impressionist painting.
