"Gallery Collection" is a collection of essays written by Li Guangtian in modern times. The author of the book's "Inscription" explains the main content of the collection of essays and the reason for the title: "Like the gallery in the remote village I wrote about, as I said, some ordinary and messy New Year pictures in that gallery are the same as these small articles of mine. ...
