The Mustard Seed Garden Manual of Painting is a manual of Chinese painting complied during the early-Qing Dynasty. It has been used for centuries in China and Japan and illustrates all the basics needed to paint in oriental style, with helpful written pointers. Many renowned Chinese painters, like Qi Baishi, began their drawing lessons with the manual.

The work was commissioned by Shen Xinyou, son-in-law of the famous playwright Li Yu, whose mansion in Jinling was known as Jieziyuan, or Mustard Seed Garden. Shen possessed the teaching materials of Li Liufang, a painter of the late-Ming Dynasty, and commissioned Wang Gai to edit and expand those materials with the aim of producing a manual for landscape painting. The result was the first part of Jieziyuan Huazhuan, which, published in 1679 in five colors, comprises five juan or fascicles. Li Yu, as the publisher, wrote a preface for this part. The first fascicle deals with the general principles of landscape painting, the second the painting of trees, the third that of hills and stones, the fourth that of people and houses, and the fifth comprises the selected works of great landscape painters.

This disc contains one of the TV Teaching Chinese painting serials, the Technique of "Blue and Green Landscape Painting" by Hou Chunlin, that addresses the use of fine outlines of mountains and stones which are colored in with blue and green tones.
