Butterfly Lovers is a perfect match of the wonderful essays of Tang Yaming, who is a master of the picture book, the senior editor of Japanese Fuyin House, and the splendid prize-winning artworks of the Central Academy of Fine Arts. It is a perfect combination of original painting techniques with the essence of Chinese traditional culture; it unfolds the beauty of classics to children and presenting them with a different world of culture. It takes a whole year to really polish the Butterfly Lovers—the picture book of traditional Chinese culture.
