Modern prints of an ancient illustrated version of the Chinese literary classic "Dream of the Red Chamber" were launched globally Thursday at the annual Frankfurt Book Fair in multilingual limited editions. "Dream of the Red Chamber," written by Cao Xueqin in the mid-18th century during the Qing Dynasty, is one of the four great classic novels of Chinese literature. The new book is a modern rendition of a painting series inspired by Cao's book, created by Qing Dynasty artist Sun Wen over three decades, whose original paintings were national treasures.
