| 内容简介(英文) | Landscape Ma Yü Ch’ing dynasty Ma Yü, tzu (style name) Kuang-wuo, was a native of Shuei-te, but resided in Chin-ling (modern Nanking). He received his jin-shi degree in 1706. Ma specialized in painting ink bamboo, and rising above the contemporary fashion, his withered bamboo stalks and fresh bamboo shoots, won high appreciation. A wooden bridge spans across a stream along whose banks bamboos grow in a continuous line. In the far distance, white clouds cap the mountains. River is as clear and quiet as a mirror. The picture well captures the mood of a retreat where the bamboo thickets would retain a passing-by man of letter to linger. |
