A lot of great artists like:FuBaoshi, XuBeihong, LiKeran, PanTianshou and so on who leading the times were emerging in a large number. However, in this thesis I stress the two:LinFengmian and GuanLiang. For one thin, they all have the same learning experiences in western countries. For another, they also have the same sentimentally attached of art. Still another, they devoted themselves into the art experimental trend of combination of Chinese and western art. And that play a key role in the promotion of Chinese painting. But the most important we should seen their unique understanding of artistic innovation and the revelation towards modern artists. Their art depend on traditional culture, insist in the western learning for use and the Chinese learning for essence. They choose the subject of opera figure painting to perform the all new idea and unique aesthetic experience to Chinese painting, in order to offer a good reference for future generations.This thesis use the method of case analysis and combining the elements of history and philosophy for sorting out and analyzing the 20th century's opera figure painting arts moreover the representative artists just like LingFengmian and GuanLiang. In one word, the Chinese opera painting is not only the development of Chinese painting's subjects, but also the sublimation of Chinese aesthetic idea.
