Mianzhu New Year Paintings, also known as Mianzhu Woodblock Prints, are one of China's folk woodblock prints, named after the city of Mianzhu in Sichuan Province, the home of bamboo paper, and are popular in southwest China. Mianzhu New Year paintings are mostly made by printing outlines on wooden plates and then filling in the colours. Mianzhu New Year paintings are one of the four major Chinese New Year paintings, along with Yangliuqing New Year paintings from Tianjin, Yangjiabu Woodblock Prints from Weifang, Shandong Province and Taohuawu Woodblock Prints from Suzhou, and are known as the "Three Treasures of Sichuan" and the "Three Best of Mianzhu". They are the result of the hard work and wisdom of generations of folk artists, and reflect the optimistic thoughts and feelings of the people of Sichuan and their ancient national ethos.
