Designed for Chinese students, this picture book visually interprets Du Fu's poem series Qiu Xing Ba Shou (Eight Poems on Autumn Meditations), written in his later years. The illustrations capture the autumn scenery, the poet's memories of the prosperous capital, his sorrow over unfulfilled aspirations, and his deep concern for the nation's turmoil during the Tang Dynasty. Combining illustration and poetry, this book aims to help students better understand the poetic content and the emotions.
