Ancient Chinese landscape painters dynasty order

Chinese landscape painting is simply called "landscape". Formed in the Wei, Jin, North and South Dynasties, but not yet completely separated from the figure painting. In the Sui and Tang dynasties, it became independent, and in the Five Dynasties and Northern Song Dynasty, it tended to become mature, and became an important branch of Chinese painting. Traditionally, according to the style of painting, it is divided into blue and green landscape, gold and blue landscape, ink landscape, light-red landscape, small blue and green landscape, and boneless landscape.

Introduction: Chinese landscape painting is the most heavy precipitation in Chinese sentiment. The continental cultural consciousness of swimming in the mountains and playing in the water, the inner cultivation consciousness of taking the mountains as virtue and the water as nature, and the visual illusion consciousness of the distance between the sky and the earth have always become the central axis of the interpretation of landscape painting. From landscape painting, we can concentrate on the mood, style, chiaroscuro and tone of Chinese painting. There is no other painting discipline that can give more emotions to the people of China like landscape painting. If we talk to others about the scriptures, landscape painting is the essence of the nation, the classical background, the image of me, and the disposition of man.

Ancient Schools: From the Tang Dynasty, Chinese landscape painting began to be divided into southern and northern schools, the founder of the northern school is the Tang Dynasty painter Li Sixun, who invented the axe chapping method, the painting of heavy use of color, thick ink on the moss is also used bright stone green coloring, ideal for the performance of the northern sunshine, the craggy and high mountain peaks. Painters of the Song Dynasty, such as Fan Kuan, Li Tang, Ma Yuan and Xia Gui, inherited this lineage and formed a school.

The Southern School of Painting, which has been described as "painting in poetry and poetry in painting" by the famous poet Wang Wei, is the goblet of the Southern School of Painting, which uses pima chapped paintings and the Mi Dot Chapped paintings invented by the Song Dynasty painter Mi Fu, and uses more ink and less color to express the hills in the drizzle in the south of the Yangtze River, and later develops into the ink and ink landscapes that use only ink, and the Southern School of Painting is developed by painters such as Wang Meng and Ni Zan.

The earliest history of painting in China dates back to the Neolithic Age of primitive society. The history of Chinese painting can be traced as far back as the Neolithic era of primitive society, the colored pottery decorations and rock paintings. Although the primitive painting skills were childish, they had mastered the preliminary modeling ability, and they were able to capture the main features of animals, plants and other forms of animals and plants, which were used to express the beliefs and wishes of the forefathers, as well as to beautify and decorate their lives.

Pre-Qin painting has been recorded in some ancient books, such as the Palace of the Zhou Dynasty, Hall of Fame, temples and shrines in the historical figures, the Warring States lacquer ware, bronze decoration, the excavation of silk paintings in Chu, etc., have reached a high level.

The Qin and Han dynasties is China's early history of the establishment of the centralized system of power, a vast territory, the country strong, the Silk Road communication between Chinese and foreign art exchanges, the art of painting unprecedented development and prosperity. Especially in the Han Dynasty, which was characterized by the prevalence of generous burials, its tomb murals, painted bricks, painted stones, as well as burial paintings on silk, vividly portrayed real, historical and mythological characters, with dynamic, episodic, reflecting the realities of life has made significant achievements. Its painting style is often grand, flowing brushwork, both rough and bold, but also fine and magnificent, rich and varied content, colorful forms.

Wei-Jin and North-South Dynasties period, the frequent wars, people's suffering, but painting still made greater development, suffering to Buddhism provides the soil for the spread of Buddhism, Buddhist art flourished. Such as Xinjiang Kizil Grottoes, Gansu Maijishan Grottoes, Dunhuang Mogao Grottoes have preserved a large number of murals of the period, the artistic attainments are very high. Due to the upper class's love and participation in painting, in addition to craftsmen, there also emerged a number of cultured and educated upper-class well-known painters, such as Gu Kaizhi. This period of popularity of metaphysics, the literati advocate floating through the free, the history of painting and painting theories and other writings began to appear, landscape painting, flower and bird painting began to sprout, this period of painting focuses on the portrayal of the state of mind and temperament of the performance of the painting of literature as the subject matter of the increasing popularity of the painting.

Sui-Tang unification of the country, relative social stability, economic prosperity, active foreign exchanges, to the art of painting injected new opportunities, in the figure painting, although Buddhist murals in the Western region of the style of painting is still popular, but Wu Daozi, Zhou Fang and others with a distinctive style of painting in the Central Plains of the works of the absolute dominance of the national style of growing maturity, Zhan Ziqi, Li Sixun, Wang Wei, Zhang Li, and other people's landscape paintings, flower and bird paintings, the work has been rich and beautiful, and achieved a high degree of success. The landscape paintings and bird and flower paintings of Zhan Ziqi, Li Siqun, Wang Wei, Zhang Reel and others were neat and rich, and achieved high achievements.

In China, the realism of painting reached its peak during the Song Dynasty in the 12th century, with Guo Xi's early spring paintings in particular as the pinnacle of realism, and then began to turn to the expression of subjective interests, and since Wang Wei was praised for having paintings in his poems and poems in his paintings, the long tradition of literati painting has continued to this day. Since the Northern Song Dynasty, Chinese painting has become more formalistic, emphasizing the use of ink and brushwork. For example, Wen Zhengming's paintings are not about the depiction of landscapes, but rather about the use of landscapes as a means to build up a variety of techniques for the use of the brush. By the end of the Ming Dynasty in the 15th century and the beginning of the Qing Dynasty, painters had already begun to transform towards self-expression, not focusing on the depiction of the objective world, but rather, Bada Shanren, the Eight Monsters of Yangzhou, Ren Bonian, Wu Changshuo and so on, all had a strong self-style and no longer cared about the authenticity of the natural world they were reproducing. Modern painters such as Qi Baishi, Zhang Daqian, etc. more embodied the style of everyone, they painted not necessarily real, but no one can imitate the essence of their paintings!

After the Five Dynasties and the Song Dynasty, the art of Chinese painting further matured and perfected, and there was a heyday, the court set up a painting academy, expanding the establishment, recruiting talents and awarding titles, the court painting flourished for a while, the literati and scholars also regarded painting as an elegant thing and put forward a distinctive standard of aesthetics, so the painters came out in large numbers, and a variety of masterpieces, and also formed a set of theoretical and creative system of independence, content, form, technique have appeared. The content, form, and technique were all rich and colorful, and there was a prosperous situation of multi-headed development.　

During the development of painting in the Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties, literati painting gained prominence. In terms of subject matter, landscape painting, flower and bird painting occupied an absolute position. Literati painting emphasized the expression of subjective emotions, "do not seek resemblance", "not seeking the world", do not tend to adhere to the aesthetic requirements of the general public, painting to show elegance, performance of leisure and fun, advocating the "division of creation", "method of the origin of the heart".

Chinese painting is a unique style of painting, which has produced many outstanding painters, schools of painting, and uncountable excellent works, and is based on the unity of human character and painting character, and focuses on the organic integration of ink and brushwork with poetry, calligraphy, and sealing.

Chinese painting is an important part of Chinese culture, rooted in the soil of national culture. It does not simply stick to the outward resemblance, but emphasizes the divine resemblance. It uses brush, ink and rice paper as special materials, constructs a unique theory of perspective, boldly and freely breaks the limitations of space and time, and has a high degree of generalization and imagination. This excellent technique and means not only make Chinese traditional painting unique and artistic vigor, but also increasingly borrowed and absorbed by the world's modern art.
