Photo taken on Dec. 13, 2008 shows a part of the paper-cut work of "Riverside scenes at the Qingming Festival", created by Li Tongzhu, a 64-year-old retired man, in Zaozhuang City, east China's Shandong Province. Li has spent 7 months to finish the 3.10-meter-long paper-cut work. "Riverside Scenes at the Qingming Festival" is an antique painting by Zhang Zeduan during the Song Dynasty (960-1279), which vividly depicts the bustling everday life in the Northern Song capital Bianliang (present-day Kaifeng) in extensive details.
