Dong Yuan

Born: Nanjing Wikipedia: 16/32 languages

Dong Yuan

Maestru al dinastiei Southern Tang, viața și pensulațiunile sale au apărut într-o perioadă de profunde înflorire culturală, în era Dinastiei celor Cinci Regate și a celor Zece Regate. Născut în Zhongling, în ceea ce este astăzi județul Jinxian, Dong Yuan nu a fost doar un pictor, ci și un oficial a cărui implicare profundă în lumea naturală a ajutat la redefinirea însăși esenței Shanshui, sau a picturii de peisaj.

Zhang Xuan

Chinez Born: Xi'an Pictură din Dinastia Tang Wikipedia: 10/32 languages

Zhang Xuan

Capodopera sa, „Doamnele Curții Pregătind Mătasea Recent Tesută”, rămâne una dintre puținele reprezentări supraviețuitoare ale acestui moment crucial din viața curții Tang — o dovadă a patronajului împăratului Huizong și a capacității lui Zhang Xuan de a transmite atât splendoarea vizuală, cât și o profundă emoție umană.

Li Zhaodao

Din dinastia Tang Born: Qin'an Qinglu Bai Wikipedia: 8/32 languages

Li Zhaodao

Peisajul dinastiei Tang se transformă sub pensula lui Li Zhaodao. Acesta se îndepărtează de tonurile subtile ale Școlii de Sud, optând în schimb pentru o aplicare densă și luminoasă a pigmenților minerali. Aceasta este esența stilului Qinglu Bai, un stil definit de greutatea și lumina sa proprii.
