盛清時期的宮廷繪畫在西洋傳教士進入宮廷之中，成為宮廷畫家之後，出現了不同於前朝的新畫體，如通景畫、線法畫、油畫、水畫以及銅版畫。在繪畫技法之中，則融入了西洋繪畫技法常使用的明暗法以及焦點透視法。於版畫的表現上，則應用了西洋銅板畫細膩線條的特性，製作出許多重要的紀實性繪畫。由於盛清時期多筆合筆畫創作所出現的繪畫作品中，發現中西合筆畫這樣的繪畫風格，是中國繪畫史上首創的繪畫形式，更開創了全世界第一個將中西方畫家的作品，合作並完成於同一件作品之中的首例，同時這樣的繪畫形式也創造出中體西用的繪畫精神。
在諸多的文獻之中，對於宮廷中合筆畫與合璧畫之間的定義並未確立下來。經過多方文獻查證後，於清代的《欽定石渠寶笈續編》以及清內務府造辦處《各作成做活計清檔》中發現其正確引用方式，論文中亦將宮廷內「南匠」與「畫畫人」稱呼上的差異性，重新確定下來，引證其差異之處，並將盛清時期中西合筆畫這樣的繪畫形式，對於中國繪畫史繪畫風格所產生的轉變與影響來做為研究與探討。
The court paintings in grand Qing Dynasty had a new painting style unlike former dynasty, such as scenic illusion paintings, perspective paintings, oil paintings, water painting, and etchings after western missionaries into the palace and became the court painters.
