Landscape Painting
山水画
Beginning in the Tang Dynasty, the landscape painting came to the fore. The purpose was not to reproduce exactly the appearance of nature, but to grasp an emotion or atmosphere in such a way as to catch the “rhythm” of nature. In the Song Dynasty, landscapes of more subtle expression appeared. Emphasis was placed on the spiritual qualities of the painting and on the ability of the artist to reveal the inner harmony between man and nature.
山水画在唐代开始脱颖而出。目的是不要复再制大自然的表象,而是要把握好情感或气氛,捕捉自然的“节奏”。在宋代,山水画更微妙的表达出现。重点放在绘画的精神品质和艺术家揭示人与自然之间的内在和谐的能力。
