　　Tibet is Han’s favorite topic for oil paintings. He has created a large number of works on Tibet by taking great pains to walk along routes of Qinghai-Tibet, Sichuan-Tibet, Yunnan-Tibet and Xinjiang-Tibet, ascending the plateau, living in tents, staying with Tibetan families and visiting pastures. His works present the unique outlooks of Tibetans under sunshine from multiple perspectives. His work “Brother and Sister” was selected by the 12th National Fine Arts Exhibition, and his “Holy Lake Sangzhu” and “Morning Glory” participated in the Exhibition on 100 Years’ Oil Paintings in China. The first part of this exhibition consists of Han Yuchen’s oil paintings.
 

The second part presents nearly 100 European oil paintings collected by Han, including precious works of the Barbizon School of France, including artists Corot, Rousseau, Diaz and Daubigny as well as realistic painters Daumier and Lhermitte. The German artist Kampf’s “Empty Pockets” and the Belgium artist Michelle’s “Rest” are also valuable masterpieces. This exhibition will offer the audience a good opportunity to closely appreciate oil painting art of Europe in the 19th century.
