Xu Beihong, a pioneer and giant of modern Chinese art: he was born in 1895 into an intellectual family. His early exposure to traditional painting techniques laid the foundation for his later artistic achievements as one who bridged Western realism with Eastern aesthetics during China's transition from imperial rule towards republican democracy after World War II (WWII). Xu studied at Shanghai School Of Fine Arts under European-trained teachers like Wu Guandeng before traveling abroad where influences such as Cézanne’ s solid forms inspired him greatly while also studying Marxist theory which influenced how society should be reflected through artwork—a unique blend that set apart his work among peers back home when it returned post WW2 . He became known not just by its technical mastery but more importantly due revolutionary stance against feudal remnants within contemporary culture depicted vividly on canvas including peasant life , workers struggles etc.. Despite facing criticism over political leanings & personal controversies throughout career spanning six decades till death aged only fifty seven years old; XU BEIHONG remains iconic figure whose legacy continues influencing generations today across both East Asian Art History courses worldwide
