From the Riverside Scene at Qingming Festival, we can see several very distinctive artistic features: this painting is written with a pen and works, with elegant colors, which is different from the general boundary painting, that is, the so-called "number of families". The composition adopts the bird's-eye panoramic method, which truly and intensively describes the typical area of the southeast corner of Bianjing at that time.
The author uses the traditional hand-scroll form and adopts the "scatter perspective" to organize the picture. The picture is long but not redundant, complicated but not chaotic, tight and compact, as in one go. The scenery taken in the painting is as big as the silent Yuan Ye, the vast rivers and the towering battlements; As small as the characters in the boat, the goods displayed on the vendors, and the words on the market, there is no loss. The picture is interspersed with various plots, which are well organized and interesting at the same time.
