Another spiritual influence that can be seen in Chinese art is Buddhism. Buddhism has had a significant impact on the culture of China, and this is evident in their artwork. Buddhist art often depicts religious figures such as Buddha or Bodhisattvas, as well as other symbols associated with Buddhism such as lotus flowers or the wheel of life.
