The “Clay Figure Zhang”
The “Clay Figure Zhang” is a kind of folk painted sculpture which is popular in Northern China, and deeply appreciated by local people. Its appearance can be dated back to late Qing Dynasty, having a history of more than 180 years until now. The “Clay Figure Zhang” was founded by Zhang Mingshan, who was born in Tianjin. He had been living his life by making clay figures with his father since childhood because of the poverty of his family. Zhang's clay figures are based on the figures in folk stories together with characters in novels and traditional Chinese operas and working people in real life. Those figures can be positive or negative. Therefore, his works are of great interestingness.
