Zhang Weiwu’s award-winning phoenix painting "Phoenix Nirvana"

“Fengyang Phoenix Painting has a folk flavor and can be called a wonder of folk art.” Fengyang is the hometown of Zhu Yuanzhang, the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty. "Since the birth of Zhu Yuanzhang," Fengyang people who should have been happier began to pray for happiness in life by drawing phoenixes, which symbolize auspiciousness. This is the origin of Fengyang phoenix paintings.
