More than 4,000 paintings made by children from 126 countries and regions around the world were put on show in Tianjin Monday.
At the world's largest exhibition of paintings by children, some 210 works were selected by experts from both China and abroad for special, gold, silver and bronze awards.
The youngest award winner was only 6 and the oldest 18.
The exhibition is part of the on-going 2002 Tianjin International Children's Culture and Art Festival. Though the children have different cultural backgrounds, adults have found their paintings reflect a common special perception and love of life, experts say.
The most impressive paintings on show are those highlighting peace, friendship and the future. They include "Save the Globe" by children from Iran, "Here Comes Peace" by children from Bosnia and Herzegovina, "Love the World of Peace" from Nigeria, "Children of the World" from Moldova and "The Peaceful Game of Friendship" by Palestinian children.
