Japan
Eight Views of the Xiao and Xiang Rivers
Yamaguchi Sekkei · Japan · Late 17th/early 18th century
Eight Views of the Xiao and Xiang Rivers, which first developed as poetic themes in 11th-century China, later became one of the favorite subjects in Japanese ink painting because it allows for so many aspects of a landscape to be treated in one work. The artist's combination of lively ink brushwork with golden clouds fuses both Chinese and Japanese sensibilities. A native of Kyoto, Yamaguchi Sekkei studied Chinese paintings as an apprentice in a Kano-school studio.
