The type of treatises on art (yishu lei 藝術類) is a sub-category to the literary category of masters and philosophers (zibu 子部) in the collectaneum Siku quanshu 四庫全書. The section has been divided into four parts: Painting and calligraphy (shuhua 書畫, 71 books), musical notes and books to the zither (qinpu 琴譜, 4 books), seal carving (zhuanke 篆刻, 2 books), and miscellaneous arts (zaji 雜技, 4 books), including books on Chinese chess. The part on the zither has been separated from other books on music, which are integrated in the Classics section. The books on seal carving and seal script characters have also relationship to the books on glyphology belonging to the "minor teachings" (xiaoxue 小學) in the Classics category. The most important books are Gu huapin lu 古畫品錄, Qinshi 琴史 and Qijing 棋經.
