《清明上河圖》的原畫長528公分，高24.8公分，最早的版本屬於北宋畫家張擇端的作品，現藏于北京的故宫博物院。该图描绘了清明时节[1]北宋京城汴梁及汴河两岸的繁华和热闹的景象和优美的自然风光。作品以长卷形式，采用散点透视的构图法，将繁杂的景物纳入统一而富于变化的画卷中，畫中主要分開兩部份，一部份是農村，另一部是市集。畫中有814人，牲畜60多匹，船隻28艘，房屋樓宇30多棟，車20輛，轎8頂，樹木170多棵，往來衣着不同，神情各异，栩栩如生，其间还穿插各种活动，注重情节，构图疏密有致，富有节奏感和韵律的变化，笔墨章法都很巧妙，颇见功底。這幅畫作對於各種形態的幾何正確描繪性使其負有盛名。
Along the River During the Qingming Festival (simplified Chinese: 清明上河图; traditional Chinese: 清明上河圖; pinyin: Qīngmíng Shànghé Tú) is a panoramic painting generally attributed to the Song Dynasty artist Zhang Zeduan (1085-1145). It captures the daily life of people from the Song period at the capital, Bianjing, today's Kaifeng. The theme celebrates the festive spirit and worldly commotion at the Qingming Festival, rather than the holiday's ceremonial aspects, such as tomb sweeping and prayers. The entire piece was painted in hand scroll format and the content reveals the lifestyle of all levels of the society from rich to poor as well as different economic activities in rural areas and the city. It offers glimpses of period clothing and architecture. As an artistic creation, the piece has been revered and court artists of subsequent dynasties have made several re-interpretive replicas. The painting is also known for its geometrically accurate images of boats, bridges, shops, and scenery. Because of its fame, it has been called "China's Mona Lisa"
Similar to the Mona Lisa, the Qingming scroll was sold, changing hands among numerous private owners, before it finally returned to public ownership. The Qingming scroll is notable historically as being among the paintings from the former imperial collection that remain in public ownership in mainland China; it was a particular favorite of emperor Puyi, who took it with him to Manchukuo and thus kept the Song Dynasty original (24.8 by 528.7 cm) (9¾ in by 17 ft 4 in) out of the collection of the National Palace Museum. It was later re-purchased in 1945 and kept at the Palace Museum in the Forbidden City.
About 20 to 30 variations on this topic by artists of subsequent dynasties were made. Several Ming and Qing versions can be found in public and private collections around the world Each version follows the overall composition of the original fairly faithfully, however, the details often vary widely. The Song Dynasty original and the Qing version, in the Beijing and Taipei Palace Museums respectively, are regarded as national treasures.
