Staff and students at the School of Arts of Nantong University recently created more than 80 paintings and posters themed around the fight against the novel coronavirus pneumonia outbreak.

The activity was meant to raise people's awareness of the importance of epidemic prevention and control, pay tribute to medical personnel on the frontlines, and convey confidence in winning the battle against the virus.

As the outbreak continues, artists across Nantong are working to keep people’s spirits up.

Paintings, calligraphy works, and paper-cuttings featuring doctors and nurses have been created to honor the bravery and hard work of medical personnel on the frontlines.
