By Chen Zhuli
This painting was done with small Chinese paint brushes that capture fine details and makes use of a color palette of a gentle layer of blue and green over ink water colors, which is a relatively more traditional Chinese painting style. Its view is high and afar, meaning it moves from the bottom to the top and from the outside to the inside. The painting was completed starting at the bottom and then moved to the top. In the painting, a beautiful lady in Tang Dynasty attire is seen holding a pipa, a traditional Chinese string instrument. She has a white rabbit and a bow next to her feet. The rabbit symbolizes the fact that Falun Dafa has been taught and spread by a holy person who was born in the Year of the Rabbit. The lady is seen holding a pipa, indicating that Falun Dafa has used only peaceful means to clarify the facts. The title "Beauty Coming from the West" has the surface meaning of a lady from the West clarifying the facts, but it represents Falun Dafa practitioners all over the world.
