The relationships of those artists narrated the story of how the painting techniques were learnt. They formed their own discipleship within family members, usually, father and son, or between master and student, or between friends and their contemporaries. Inspirationally stimulating, those relationships articulated how the thoughts and ideas of the artists were exchanged and passed down from one generation to another. Given its presence of a number of painting styles, during the Ming and the Qing dynasty, Jinling became one of the most active regions in the creation of Chinese paintings, a leader that set its own standard.
