- Painting in the traditional style is known today in Chinese as guó huà, meaning "national painting" or "native painting", as opposed to Western styles of art which became popular in China in the 20th century.
- It is also called danqing.
- Traditional painting involves essentially the same techniques as calligraphy and is done with a brush dipped in black ink or coloured pigments, oils are not used.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Chinese painting article was read about 52,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 80 and blocks with 74: each hit it takes is cut by 30 %.
