Handscroll; Ink on paper; 172cm(width)*22cm(height) The mountains in this piece are painted in pimacun style, a type of landscape painting that presents surface textures of mountain rocks, ridges, and trees, in a scene that extends far and wide. The brushes use an abundance of light ink in a restrained, relaxed image, taking great liberty in drawing that suggests a calligraphic aesthetic. The painter expresses his ideas in the scene, suggesting a sense of serenity and a yearning for the plain and simple.
