A Simple Life

"For all my life I have been a teacher, and painting is just an avocation," Pan said. In 1928, he was appointed professor of traditional Chinese painting at the National Academy of Art (today the China Academy of Art), and he stayed with this institution for the rest of his life.

Half a century of his life was devoted to China's modern art education. It was his sincere hope that Chinese painting in the new era, as a representative of East Asian painting, could still stand proudly at the top of the world's art Olympus.
