Storied Mountains and Dense Forests is an ink painting on silk created by the renowned artist Ju Ran, possibly around the late 10th century. Dong Yuan and Ju Ran are hailed as representatives of an exquisite realm in Chinese landscape painting. They are known by their "Dong-Ju Painting School," a significant branch of Chinese painting renowned for expressive depiction of objects and freehand brushwork. In terms of composition, Dong Yuan's Waiting for Ferry in Summer Mountains is "solid above, void below," while Ju Ran's Storied Mountains and Dense Forests goes "from void to solid, then to a distant void," both significantly differing from other landscape paintings. What distinguishes the brushstrokes used by the two masters? How did the ancient technique of presenting objects with "seamless integration of brushwork and imperceptible ink traces" impact later artists? Professor Qiu Ting, the vice dean of the School of Chinese Painting and Calligraphy at the Central Academy of Fine Arts, provides insights. #TheSongPainted #ArtCritics
