Night, combined with a brand new style and fertile imagination, shows a maid is seeing after a sleeping baby at a beautiful night with soothing wind and bright moon, just like a sweet, peaceful and graceful serenade.

        朱宣咸作品充满着鲜明的时代感，充满着鲜明的社会性。

        1949解放前，他就以失学、失业以致遭受牢狱之苦等亲身感受创作了不少如投抢匕首般震撼人心的作品，从多个角度鞭挞当时社会的黑暗，揭露与反映民众的疾苦与抗争；新中国成立和改革开放以来，我们社会重大的政治、经济、思想方面的活动也都在他的作品中留下了鲜明的轨迹，他总是豪迈奔放地以满腔的热情时似气势庞大的交响乐、时似涓涓细流的抒情诗，赞美新中国、赞美新社会、赞美纯净美好的大自然。

        从这一帧帧高扬着时代精神的壮丽画卷，我们可以清晰地读到朱宣咸艺术创作的心路历程，读到他大半个世纪以来，始终坚持不懈地对真理、对光明、对艺术美与自然美的执著追求。

Zhu Xuanxian’s works are featured with vivid orientations to the times and the society.

Before the Liberation in 1949, based on his own experiences of dropping out of school, being unemployed and even being imprisoned, he created a number of works shocking as a dagger that reflected from multiple aspects the darkness of the society and the miseries and fighting of the people at that time. Afterwards, since the foundation of the P.R.C and the starting of the reform and opening-up, the significant social activities in politics, economy and thoughts have also left vivid traces in his works. With his abundant enthusiasm seeming to be the grand symphony or the stream-like lyric poem now and then, he praised the new China, the new society and the pure and beautiful nature.

From these historical paintings with the features of the times and the society, we can read clearly the emotional journey of Zhu Xuanxian’s artistic career and his persistent pursuit for truth and brightness as well as the artistic and natural beauty.
