Ink Masters - Fan Kuan

 #inkmasters #ink #fankuan #chineselanscapepainting


One of the most famous ink landscape paintings in the history of Chinese art is this one by Fan Kuan.

I was once lucky enough to view a book that had a foldoutreproduction that was roughly the same size as the original scroll.

Lets just say the original is about 10 times or more larger than this image! 


notice how mist and water move your eye across and down the image.

How the trees on top of the peak balance those below.
